Tx River Rat Mini build

Missed you at the marlin run, Ron. I still want a mini, but I'm moving in the wrong direction considering I just bought a 18x8

Yea I hated to miss the run but had some sick folks at the house ,so I missed it maybe next year. I had an 8 +18 for awhile but being retired I just cant afford to run it ,The difference between 1 mile a gallon and 10 and 11 miles a gallon will let me run when and as long as I want to.
(What I have in Mind)
This is going to be a true mini.
5 ft bottom 6 ft gunnel 10 ft long
40 hp Generac
ultra 4 blade prop
arrow prop redrive
090 aluminum sides and bottom
Everything should be in next week ,I am getting a work area set up right now.

Just throwin this out there. From what I've seen, and experienced no prop for a smaller engine can hang with a powerfin. They're more like a real airboat prop. IVO, compition, ultra ect won't push like they do
 
Throw in some picture updates guys. I think the true minis are badass

The ultra prop 5 blade is already ordered
Arrow prop redrive with adapter for the ultra prop is on order.
This should get me up and running then I can try some of the other props and configurations.

We finally got them started. Gonna be a set of twins. We are running 22 hp Predator engines with 44 inch 3 blade Ultra Props.
