[QUOTE="Wood_Duck, post: 395247, member: 9599"] So I had been planning on getting a new Blazer hull and reusing my current motor, but talking to a friend who owns one of the local boat stores last week, I was offered a deal that was too good to pass up and ended up trading in my whole rig and I bought a brand new SeaArk RXJT180 with 90/65 Yamaha, lol. It sort of worked out for the best considering the excellent trade I got and now I have much more room than the Blazer hull I was looking at so I'm quite happy. I'm wondering for those that have had UHMW added, out the door what did you pay roughly and for what size hull? I'm going to try and get the Rock Proof UHMW intake soon for it and sort of want to do the hull. But do you typically do the whole bottom or just the center? Also any idea on what weight it would add to an 18' rig? Luckily the SeaArk isn't too heavy of a hull for what it is compared to some of the other 18' boats but still a concern with the 90/65 powering it(sadly the boat wasn't rated for the 115/80).
