[QUOTE="Creekchub, post: 493643, member: 26052"] I bought a late 90’s war eagle 16 with a 45 Merc jet. The boat gets on plane quick and seems to run pretty skinny. However, I’m interested in getting a tunnel installed. I run the James and New rivers in VA and rock ledges are always a concern. I know most of the waters I fish pretty well but do explore new sections sometimes and would like a little extra protection. Does adding a tunnel drop the top speed any? My boat isn’t a flat bottom and has a slight rise in the bow, if that’s the right terminology. Any other concerns that I should think about before making a decision to add a tunnel? Many thanks [/QUOTE]
