I've got Line-X on my Montanaboatbuilders driftboat.  Four years  and 5 Hi trips with only a couple of dings in the line-x material.  Slides over rocks etc. pretty good.. and I can drag the boat just about anywhere to launch/take-out with no troubles.  The nice thing about Line-x is that once you have a couple dings etc  you can take it to Line-x and for a couple of Jacksons  they will repair.  Line-x material does not allow water to penitrate between the hull of the boat and itself.  Cost me $250.00 bucks and has been a great investment  in protecting the bottom of my homemade boat...

Looks nice David! Do you know how much weight it added?

Where's the motor? You going with a Yammyhammer?

I'd like to but really want to say within the rated hp for protection from all these (American sue happy people)

I'd like to strap a 25 jet on it and see how it will do. Anybody got one sitting in the shed collection dust?

Had a fellow call another dealer today, was around $6000 for a 30 Yamie.

Understand on the rating and lawyers.

My 40/30 Yammie wasn't that much, do you know who your friend spoke with? If you want, PM me and we can chat.

I'm jealous now. That Linex would look great on the Supreme. Can they spray it smooth? Do you mind telling how much it cost to have sprayed? BTW David are you working or busy this weekend? If not holler at me.

Mike, from what I understand they cannot spray perfectly smooth and it needs some texture. David, you can confirm.

Gentlemen,

Sorry for the delay, Red Dog brought down "his" classic and I met him on top of the dam, we took the 15 hp---15" Honda on the LT and it churned butter, I will need a 20" motor.

We cast lots and lots of 8,9, and 10 weight rods. From the expensive green one out of  Montana to the black and blue ones from Korea. Ask Red Dog which ones I thought was the lightest and cast the best loops ;)

Line-X, set me back $425

I have heard that they can do colors for a premium and have heard it can be had smooth, but that is just from another fisherman (liar). I will find out.

Mike, I work ever weekend, volunteered for the July 4th shutdown so I could take that vacation slot when I wanted it, (like cooler weather, less people and maybe generation)
