Flyfever Posted May 13, 2019 Report Share Posted May 13, 2019 Hi forum - Looking for fact based views of how shallow you can go and run with bare bone Hpxs. Don’t want to do tunnel so looking for most shallow option non tunnel! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JnamJnam Posted May 22, 2019 Report Share Posted May 22, 2019 Where are you located? I will find some ankle deep water let you stand there and watch me run through it. Jack up / Trim up - 4 Blade prop 5" running draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lurem Posted May 22, 2019 Report Share Posted May 22, 2019 I'm confused (not hard to do at my age) but isn't the HPX-s the tunnel model? Why would you want to know how shallow the tunnel would run then ask ....Don’t want to do tunnel so looking for most shallow option non tunnel!

JnamJnam Posted May 22, 2019 Report Share Posted May 22, 2019 It has a small semi-tunel. Not the full on Tunnel that the HPX-T had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lurem Posted May 22, 2019 Report Share Posted May 22, 2019 I get it, thanks for the clarification. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mogan Master Posted May 26, 2019 Report Share Posted May 26, 2019 I have fished on one before a thought the draft was around 6” with two guys using artificial and little to no gear besides safety gear. Like already mentioned it will also run in the 5-6” range. Not sure how much water you need to plane out but would guess somewhere between 12-18”.
