Figured you all would like an update. She’s been a great duck boat this winter season and you gain a lot of respect downeast here by having a 40 year old Atlantic, especially when you rebuilt it yourself!

I see four birds with a black beak and one with a yellow beak, so five!

Re: 1986 19' Atlantic rebuild
The boat runs excellent. She likes to cruise at 24 mph turning around 4000rpm. She will plane all the way down to 14-16mph, too. I’m turning a 4 blade power tech and the boat will jump on plane in less than a foot of water if you know how to do it. Will run in 6-8” trimmed out, and floats in about the same trimmed up.Top end is mid-30’s, and the boat carries her weight well with the tank location. I’d rather be lucky than good any day
