Lowes roughneck vs G3 gator tough…

[redblood]

In the market for a center console 1860 tunnel jet.

I have a g3 sportsman and a lowe 14 ft jon and both have been great boats. Would like to have one boat to do both. Love the river for smallmouth and love crappie fishing small local
Lakes. Anyone have experience with either of boats. Yeah i know that lose 30 percent power and some speed but i care nothing about going fast. Just need to get up current

Drive mine before you buy! At least 20 people around my house have Havocs. Most have tillers but mine is a Side console. Ive been on big lakes and also 6 inch gravel bars. 40mph

Also look up Ott Defoes River Jet Setup on youtube. His is really close to perfect.

Had an older g3 hunting boat years ago and it was a tough boat, but no experience with the Lowe…….. I run a jet on an alweld, a couple of my friends run the havoc river rats with console 115/80. They are great handling boats compared to just my flatbottom alweld that tends to slide. one of them has it all set up with livescope ect and fishes ky lake regularly with his . I would throw the havoc into your considerations.

I don't still have the boat but it would flat git it in skinny water.
