[QUOTE="bulldog, post: 327283, member: 4592"] I walked it first to make sure. We stopped here the week before when it was 7" higher. Honestly, this boat takes everything I give it. I have run 3-4" numerous times and it takes it with little to no rubbing of rocks. If you see how I started the video when I was facing downstream and accelerated as I turned to go back up stream, it really helps to get on plane in a short area. This boat is 20', almost 23' with the pump, and heavy if it is loaded down but as I get to know it and really test it, I am very happy. We took it last weekend with 5 guys, 42 gallons of gas and a full cooler and we were running 3-4" at the shallowest and only rubbed one time (not including logs) on 100 plus river miles. I truly feel like it will run in the same water as my former 18' flat bottom jet if it has a light load and my bro is not driving. He is learning and getting better with every river mile but it takes years to learn. I have a lot to learn yet. 8) [/QUOTE]
