Good read. This should be a good fishing platform. Like to see it go on the bass tour and make its debut.

I have been in love with those boats ever since meeting Brent at Jasper years ago.

A swivel seat and trolling motor on the front deck is required to be a standard Bass Boat.
Apparently a fast Bass Boat inspired Errol Lanier to design this custom boat.

Each build is totally custom to the owner. Most have swivel seats and trolling motors. The wider platform makes for more room to fish around those on the deck and with more people.

I had never seen the one with the split console. My fish boat is waiting on the painter-I can't wait to run it at LOTO when they have the "big bass bash". There are over 1000 bass boats to race as they all head to their secret spots.

Hey Joe! Can you DM me your email? It won't let me send you private messages on here. I have a big folder of more pics of our custom rigs like that and yours I can give you access to.

For a 20 foot boat It eats chop for a above it all ride.

A long time ago my wife say's I don't get it the rougher the water the faster you drive...

I said you just want to be skipping across the top

Interesting. Doesn't the 300R come with a Sport Master gear case? That looks like a Torque Master gear case.

[JPEROG]

You can get what ever case you want. The Torque master is smaller and unless you run the case really high in an open tunnel "insuring that you are above the surface" then the smaller case will be less drag and faster-especially with positive trim settings.

Correct. A modified nose cone TM can be faster than a SM with a 300R on an LCB because its more narrow. SM is only required with the 450R with us, since the only other option is the 5.44 HD which is just as wide.
