Reef Hawg: I could be wrong but I am about 90% sure that on the new 1760 gt there is no side gunnell to stand on like the esox mag you can't walk all the way around like you can on the mag. Also if you buy the 1760 gt tiller you CANNOT get the rear casting deck because you won't be able to steer the motor. So the Only real platform is in front but it is large enough for 2 people to cast from. Now as for the caps it will have the same caps as the esox magnum does. Hope this helps. Mike

Now for my ultimate Musky Rig:
18+ feet long!
Must be tiller model Only!! I need all the floor space you can get.
Must have a wide beam at least a 96 inch like Lund has, (wider the beam the more stable it is)
Must have Completely Dry storage like on the new Tuffy's
No need for the large livewell just a baitwell The Large livewell is wasted space, should be dry storage.
Now just put the esox mag interior in a deep v with everything I mentioned above and I believe you have the ultimate musky boat
it will fish 3 people very effectively and ALL people will have a platform which makes fishing gliders and figure 8's alot easier!
If there is a boat out there like this please give me some info as I am in the market!!!!!
