Got a call back. Guy said he’s having trouble with his phone.
It’s east Texas Fiberglass off hwy 80 in Mineola. Said he tried to sign a long term lease where the original shop was but the owner of the building (not Mike) and he couldn’t make it work.

There goes your top end spee....never mind it's a ranger. Man, I owned that same exact boat he has in the pic, and surprisingly that boat was pretty fast. I would say your definition of a fast boat is a little skewed cuz you've run Skeeters for so long. LOL You only passed me once..... in a Bullet! That doesnt count!

That ole bug boat of yours ran pretty good. The look on your face when I came around you was priceless!!

Do they pull the motor or do you have to take it off before dropping it off?

YUP!!! Had mine done about a year ago. Mike told me to hook up winch strap the first 3 or 4 times I pulled out, but after that I could pull up on trailer and pull out without worrying about it. The "slick" will wear off. Great product and great people!

Yandeltex-they pull the motor and empty the gas tank. Yes, they do. So, try to run ad much of the gas out that you can. Now Mike would compensate you that. I don't know about the new people.

I had one put on my Falcon after the first use. It is a tremendous product and Mike was a pleasure to work with but I did lose 4mph top end speed but the security of the hull was well worth it as I hit a stump on pad at Rayburn last year and you couldn't tell i even hit it.
