Eyra handling

Handling is great. I let a gentleman drive mine yesterday that was worried about going in and out of small crooked creeks. He was impressed.

Kevin is accurate and all of the Eyra models are not that fast out of the hole, though the 200 class seems to be. The Eyra will not porpoise at low speeds trimmed down and she runs more flat with a high hull clearing than the other models. Once you trim her up then you have to pick it up, as the hull does not use much trim. It is pretty much set as it is, depending on the load.

Mine runs fine at thirty mph. Although I rarely run at that speed.

We know your new to this Treg. You should just run the trim up enough to breathe hull loose without loping.

Tag…I just sold my P2 to upgrade and Im looking hard at the Eyra. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ive heard the same rumor about having it loaded “correctly” to achieve max speed but I would think that applies to any high performance bass boat these days? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

In response to the capabilities of an EYRAs handling, there are two descriptions to discuss. One, while I fish a lot of rivers and areas that have crab trap float markers everywhere, you need to zig-zag around them and the Eyra can respond better than any boat I have been in. It is fast to respond to steering input and that responsiveness is one of the best qualities. Then there is top end. I am new to this boat and am taking it slow at seat time. Yes this is a high performance baot and can achieve top end in the 80s but like all high performance boats they chine walk. I need more time to learn to drive the chine walk. I am sure it has somewhat to do with load balance. I dont think a small amount of tackle makes a difference, but I fish often by myself and I weigh 250 pounds. That makes a difference! I havent figured what to do about that yet short of loosing weight but heck I love to eat!!!
