Looks sharp. How high does it sit out of the water? The Skeeters look like they sit higher than the Tuffys or Rangers. How slow does it troll down with the 150? I do a little bit of pulling cranks for walleyes when I'm not musky fishing. I hear the F150 is a strong 150 and has bullet proof reliability.

yes, it's a true deep-V...which is one of the things i was looking for in order to increase my comfort on bigger waters like Green Bay and LotW. might sit slightly higher than a Tuffy 2060 or Ranger 620, but pretty comparable.
quick water test this afternoon showed it to be smooth. as low as 2mph low end and hitting 47mph red-lining at 6000rpms. very nice getting onto plane in about 4-5 seconds. pretty cool to be able to take your hand off the tiller handle at 45mph and have it hold the line. might try a different/larger prop to lower the rpms a tad.
