I still don't understand why your buddy didn't put a clip of lead in him as soon as he got in the boat or at least let him know that if he raised his hand to hit you again that he wouldn't have a hand to make a fist. I woulda had him in the bottom of the boat belly up with a .45 on him until the warden or sheriff got there. Of coarse I wasn't there so my visual im sure is different that what happened but still.

Didn't think i would receive this much of a response on this topic. I think i have it narrowed down to a Mud Buddy and either a GatorTrax or an Excel... Still taking notes from input though, thanks again gents!

A lot easier said than done. What if you pulled your 45 on him and he started walking off to his boat? Shoot him in the back? Wait until he gets to his boat and hope he doesn't have a gun?

No, GTFO and call the law. I think Wayne knows a bit about how to handle himself.

Wal u need to install nitrous oxide bottles on your airboat

He has been identified, brought in for questioning and case be prepared to go to the DAs office. The wheels of justice turn slow . Not the same day though.

Just the bottles?

American duck it happened really fast. Part of the problem was buddy was behind me. When the guy went to the front of the boat to get the anchor is when lead was about to go downrange. My friend handled his end perfectly. He said not a word, had a hold of the weapon without flailing it around or even showing it, he just waited. He would have been legal in jury's eyeball to shoot when the sustpect reached for the bucket. It just wasn't right to do it at that second. Had the suspect gained momentum with obtaining the bucket. I hate having to say it, the deal would have been over right then and there. My bud did exactly the right thing in that situation.

I'm taking notes too, keep the opinions coming!

I'm still waiting to hear if one brand and/or style does better in vegetation that the others.

Trout,..... That's a very good question, and IMO Mud Buddy I the best in Veg.
The list of Motors goes on but the top 3 will be
Mud buddy
Pro drive
Gator tail

Now Then,.... We are only talking Lower units here because they are all packing the same motor per say.

Pretty spot on Muddyfoot, and if you hit a stump and happen to damage the lower unit gears similar to an outboard in the Prodrive, repairs are a lot higher. The other motors are just belts and pulleys.
Not to mention that Prodrive will knock the crap out of you when you hit something since they do not have floating handles like the others.
Drive them all and make up your own mind.

Pro Drive is a dang good motor but to me it's just a bad A out board.

Gator Tail is just to lose of a handle in the tough stuff

Mud buddy is the OG, but it's hard to get some one on the phone.
