Damn it doesn't look that wide.

I like that thing. I think I'll put it on my wish list.

Here's some more pics. You can tell the size of it a little better in these. 75 Yeti up front.

Just sent Clyde in Titusville an email. Fell down the youtube rabbit hole and found pretty much the exact one I want to build. I would just add a casting platform to the front.

Yes that is a beautiful machine. One thing I'm going to comment on, that rear poling platform with the seat will take up your whole rear deck. If it was me and I was getting that layout I would get the mud motor rear and save the extra $1000 that the full raised rear deck costs. You can see here what I'm talking about. I've always loved the platforms but I really like the simplicity and extra room of running a tiller.



This is the exact layout I would get if I were to order one with a platform:

Ha, I actually have that second picture saved on my computer. Thanks for the advice, I would love to save $1000.

Are you pretty serious about getting one or just toying around?

i don't really understand the width. my boat is less than 60" wide, and that 75 yeti will go in it sideways with room to walk around both sides. Yours looks like its almost touching length wise.

I'm very serious. I have lower back problems and the kayaking is just wiping me out for the entire weekend. I love kayak fishing so want to stay as close to that as possible without having to sit down or paddle. I want to have more range and possibilities too. There are so many places I want to fish that are just unrealistic with a kayak unless I had a mothership.

Awesome man, sounds like it's perfect for you. That console with the nice seat sounds like it would work well for your back too.

The Gheenoe is widest at the middle, like most boats, and is 55". At the front it gets way narrower. I've got a bunch of pics I can send you on my phone but uploading pics ever since photobucket is gone does nothing but piss me off. Email me at goprotiger@gmail.com and I'll send some

Officially joined the Gheenoe Family this weekend! What a bad arse little fishing rig. Spent most of the weekend driving to Huntsville to get her, but was able to run it on Sunday for a little while. I was surprised how stable the Gheenoe is, and cannot wait to fish this weekend with it.

Here are a few pics of the LT25. It’s a sweet rig! My KC 12 will be for sale soon! Thanks to RedsonRedsonReds for the advice.

NIIIIICCEE!

Did you get it from a dealer? If so, custom build, and which dealer?

I bought it from a guy in Huntsville. He bought it from a dealer when he lived in St Pete, FL. It is a custom build LT25 that came pretty bare. From there he added all the components he wanted from what he told me. I was able to get a great deal on it. It’s definitely a sweet set up, and I won’t have to do much. No more paddling for this guy!

Titusville or Graves has not responded/replied to several emails and calls. Any other good dealers?
