[@curtisritter9147]

nice boat and finally some badass music.

[@Brenbolone]

I watched this first but then listened to the podcast and am coming back to comment. I am excited to see this boat with the blind up on it.

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

We finally finished and it looks awesome!

[@agentgrb]

Finished the podcast came over to leave a comment. Nice boat. Don’t forget your California boater card. Can’t wait for duck season.

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Thanks! Thanks for listening to podcast as well. Boater card ✔️

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Thanks Brandon! Good luck out there this year!

[@paytonadams2452]

Props do a lot for mud motors. I have a big blade on my gtr XD and love it. Isnt the fastest prop but has the most torque and bite. Not sure if y’all have the 3 blade on it or not but two blades do a lot better in the mud. Sweet rig Titus and thank you for your service! 🇺🇸

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Thanks! We have the 2 bladed prop

[@chucksmith5002]

Soooooo cool. Can’t wait to see what you guys do with it.

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Thanks Morgan!

[@tylersaldivar7967]

How you like the rear deck gun box? Is it functional? Seems like it could be a pain getting more than 1 shotgun in and out

[@gosilentoutdoors2094]

Sweet rig! Congrats to the team!

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Thanks!!

[@larryheadings8921]

Sweet Rig and footage!🦆🏹🦆🎯

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Haha us too!

[@SomewhereInWisconsin]

Nice ride! Can't wait to see some of the new stuff you get to hunt!

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Thanks!

[@chrissarrazin9185]

I’ve noticed that you have a spare tire on your trailer, just a note that in the pst I have had one stolen when I was out in the marsh since then I’ve kept the spare in my truck… just a comment love the new boat!

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Thanks! Ya we’re gonna put a lock on it

[@Toobluejzs147]

Our 40 hp longtail is on the way i cant wait for the season we are gonna fly in my 16 footer

[@thekiddd8814]

does it use the plastic starter gear briggs used for years

[@joegodina1738]

Congrats!!!

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Thanks!

[@michaelprevost1229]

Really nice boat congrats

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Thanks Michael!

[@zafrankhan1169]

Gauge of metal sheet?

[@turkeyhunter7617]

Sweet!!! 👍🦆

[@joegodina1738]

I have a 35 hp go devil on my war eagle boat, but my motor says ( set up I guess) can’t be used in California. Did you all have the motor or exhaust modified? Just curious! You will definitely have fun with it!!😊

[@duck_poppa]

Yea but what do you do to give back to the ducks lol 😆😂🤣 congrats on the boat guys.

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

😂🤣😂 Thanks!

[@tholla92]

Does the trailer come with reverse lights?

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Yes

[@fullstrapoutdoors9154]

Great video! That is sweet! Gonna be fun taking that out and hunting in it!🦆

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Thanks! For sure!

[@kirkbourgeois8255]

Do a vid on reverse reversing some mud and some vegetation. Can you do a vid on the trimsystem down and up

[@bensonmiller8280]

Hey man just curious about what kind of rear running light you have? The design is perfect where would I get one for my boat?

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

I’m not sure if gator has that for sale but you could maybe give them a call

[@calebranschau6497]

Great review! Been looking at a 1754 extreme series for awhile. Random question...what is the distance between the rear deck gun box and the front deck? I am just wondering if I added a gun tray how long the tray would be. Thanks in advance!

[@dannyneal9713]

What made you decide on the GATORTAIL vs PRODRIVE? I’m a Prodrive guy myself I don’t necessarily need the speed so much as I need the durability and power . Just curious there’s no hate!

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

We’re friends with them. We’re not concerned with speed and we have plenty of power.

[@tannerlindsey6596]

I got a 1753 havoc with the gator tail 40xd on it. Is it normal for the motor to push back against you? It turns good except for when I try to straighten it out I have to put a lot of force to get it to straighten back out.

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

You definitely have to man handle it. It’s not like running a ski boat

[@whackinstackin3149]

Awesome boat!

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Thanks!

[@williambell2176]

Sweet rig

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Thanks!

[@HokeOutdoors]

Can't wait to see the adventures y'all get into with the boat this season! Make me want one BAD

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Thanks Thomas! We’re pumped

[@joshoberry2512]

Who builds that fuel tank ? I’d like to get one for my boat and get rid of that ole red one. That’s a very nice rig btw !

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Thanks! I’m not sure it’s not labeled

[@ggw7948]

Thats a nice rig. Building a blind on the boat to hunt out of it some or just using it for transport through the marsh? Also surprised Cali allows combustion engines in the marsh.

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Thanks. Ya we have a boat blind. It’s an Avery boat blind.

[@Greenboxgreenheads]

I have a question what is your preference on spinning wing decoys and what one do you have I'm preparing for the season and awesome video

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

It’s situational for me. If they work leave em’ if they don’t, pull em’. Thanks!

[@Greenboxgreenheads]

@@MidValleyMercenaries ok thank you for the tip

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

👍🏼

[@nickmorgan6893]

How fast does it go?

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

32 mph with 2 guys no gear. 28 with 4 guys and full gear

[@jessykajla2605]

Nice boat: what dealer did you guys use?

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Thanks! We actually picked it up at the factory in Louisiana

[@butchcantara1497]

My dream motors here in the Philippines 🙏🙏🙏 40hp

[@blaketoepke1101]

Awesome boat! Quick tip for your stern light: get some heat shrink tubing and put it on the length of the exposed fiberglass pole. It starts shedding fiberglass pretty quickly and this will keep your hands fiberglass free. Enjoy your new ride and I love your channel!

[@mikebullard3090]

Up north, out of Yuba City is Gray Lodge, further north is Sac Wildlife Refuge. I know that's a bit of a haul out of Merced and you should be able to find something more local. Great area the Central Valley.

[@enuff2bdangerous]

Heard the podcast! Nice rig.

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Thanks!

[@chriscoatney79]

Congrats, can’t believe RC didn’t talk you into the PD!

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

😂😂 he tried.

[@paytonadams2452]

@@MidValleyMercenaries prodrive isn’t it the gtr was the better choice😂

[@nastynissan2776]

Awesome!!

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Thanks

[@lancedore88]

U literally passed not to far from my house when u went to gatortail lol.... yall should of came down in December could of took yall on some south Louisiana duck hunts

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Sounds like a good time!

[@pedroantonio3776]

Good evening, I am from Mexico and I would like to purchase the boat with the engine.

[@ramirosalinas4740]

I know lake Yosemite when i see it!

[@timbarton7332]

Sweet

[@sla-3227]

Nice 👌

[@Potchoua87]

Whenever u have room on the boat i can take ya to some mallard hunting hole on public in sac but i gotta blind fold ya lol…

[@jbaker4900]

I would have added hydro turf to the hunt deck. When wet, it's gonna be slicker than owl shit. The only bad I see in the whole boat. Is the random bar running across the floor, seems like a trip hazard. I wish Gator Tail could get rid of it. Other than that beautiful boat.

[@jeremiahhardy8938]

Nice 👍🏻

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

🤙🏼

[@willispautz]

Should of got the uncle J with a GTR

[@Hooligan--jc9cg]

Well , i hope it doesn't take you guys away from the refuge but i'm happy to see y'all exploring other facets of duck hunting. Just like everyone else i'm excited to see what you guys do with this new tool in your arsenal.

[@MidValleyMercenaries]

Refuge runners forever man. It’s in our blood, but like you said, it’s another tool in the bag

[@colinfrost5776]

Badass boat! Last year was my first season hunting waterfowl and you guys definitely helped me a ton. I’m from Merced so if you guys have any advice on refuges to put in for I’d greatly appreciate it. If you’re ever interested in hunting together let me know! Keep up the good work

[@DonnyandtheboysHunting]
