[QUOTE="ducktrooper, post: 300794, member: 9243"] Thanks guys for the input. I'm checking into tunnel hulls from Alweld and Southfork since they both make custom sizes. Might add weldbilt into the mix. I agree extra cupping and anticavitation plate will help if I run tunnel hull. Top speed is way less important than being able to cruise shallow water at speeds anywhere from 5-10 mph. I'd be happy with 25 mph with 2 guys and medium load. When the water is low during no generation, you can't fly around the river b/c of rocks and shoals. But I don't want a tin hull that sags in the water or drafts more than 8-10" when I'm running at lower speeds. [/QUOTE]
