Re: Looking to get some more power. Any suggestions?
That it will even move with 5 men and all that weight on front is a wonder,.Weight on front is a killer, had a 454 bb on 15/8 with simlar bow fishing rig,got stuck often, tool the rig off the front and it was a whole lot better.

Have 2 spots on front of rake,2floods on cage, & 2 floods on bottom of rake. Ones on bottom of rake are to low, would be better at bottom of seats height. But as bright as anything I have seen.
