What’s the deal with the 219. Why so long? New design?

Complete top-cap redesign from rub rail up. Look at the new big tiller for hints on improvements but it isn't just a lipstick refresh. New 220k sq ft factory being set up. Difficult workforce in the area (1 of 20 hired stay employed).

I can do 48mph all day with 2 people in the boat. I've touched 51 in it by myself!

I must run the oldest, slowest, and smallest rig here! 1980 Lund VFR with a 1979 75hp Evinrude. Old Minnkota trolling motor with the foot pedal nobody really cares for. She’s old but gets me on the water!8D2D2217-9240-469B-8CE7-CE1D08C1EA6F.jpg

2012 Skeeter WX 1850 w/ a Yamaha 150 and 9.9 kicker. It's enough for me to have fun and enjoy the water.

I have a Water Scamp 2. Early 1990s model. 10ft. Works for duck hunting, small sloughs, and occasional river run. Bought back in high school after i purchased my 1st truck. 1978 chevy big10. Could toss it in the back with camping gear and head to Brewer lake or wherever on weekends. Thought i had it made. Maybe i did. Now, ill push my kids around in it with waders in some nearby pothole while trying to drop a smily (spoon bill) or teal just to give them some excitement.

I was doing my break in period this weekend so only running WOT for 1 minute every 10 minutes per the manual. I had 4 people, my fishing gear, and full tank of fuel. Had her over 57 mph and still gaining speed and rpm’s before I had to easy up. 4500 rpms would run at 42-43 mph. That growl on start up is BA! Love it! Came with a 4 blade bravo 20p and handled great. I think my motor height is pretty good but I need some more hours to be sure. Hole shot is excellent. Didn’t time it but it pops right up quick.

I loved my 1895 Storm SC. From a pure fishing standpoint it was one of the best I’ve owned!
