How's stability side to side? Rock much if co-angler switches sides?

It's actually very stable when someone is standing on the side cap.

Looks like BPS in Grapevine is listed as a dealer. Anyone seen any of their models in the showroom?

BPS sells their duck boats at some locations but wouldn't have this model.
Im in Rockwall if anyone needs to take a closer look at the strike series.
Also they have contacts for financing if needed. It's not a issue.

Guys,

Gator Trax is not a huge company. They do make a lot of duck boats. They do not make many of these Strike series bass boats. I was talking with Kent when we were designing my boat he told me they made between 3-6 of the strike series boats a year. They most likely build more now because they are such great boats. The nice thing about Gator Trax is that you get to design the boat. They will do anything you want. These are not cookie cutter boats. David the OP is correct. The hydro turf is great stuff. It is a closed foam material. It does not get hot.When it gets dirty all you have to do is spray it with a hose and it looks new. The first boat they built for me was one of their duck boat that Kent help me design so I could use it for duck hunting, crappie fishing and shallow bass fishing. They are great people to deal with. Kent is one of the owners of the company. He will help you design any boat you want. He is a straight shooter and does not blow smoke up your arse. below is the duck boat they built for me back in 2011

GT builds one of the very best mud boats on the market. I have friends who have been abusing (running) them for years and they are tough, well built boats.
I'm a year or so out from buying a new boat, this one just got added to the short list.
70mph in open water and no worries about leaving glass on the stumps in the nasty stuff..... worth looking at.

I just stumbled across these boats on the internet yesterday. The versitilty alone from this boat and its construction is impressive. When we retire and fish the country this is it. Fresh Water, Bays, Ive found jet drive companies for a lower jet unit to carry around and throw on for some Idaho River fishing. This is a hull that will take the abuse outlast any glass boat and with little to maintenence.

Now I am going to have save more money!

Do you know what color camp that hydro turf is? Matches perfect!!

Watched a video online.
Couple questions.
1. Is there any floatation in this rig?
2. Are the livewells insulated?
3. The hull design looks fast but flat. Can anyone that owns one or riden in one say they like it in big water?
