[QUOTE="Allen, post: 226793, member: 389"] Unless you're looking for the advantages that aluminum provides. Such as ability to skid up on a gravel shoreline without grimacing so bad. I am not familiar with Kingfisher boats, but if I buy aluminum again...I'll stay with Lund as their layouts are fine by me. Most likely either a Crossover or Impact. The Impact would be my choice if I wanted a 20 ft boat. The Crossover is pretty similar to my current Fisherman, which I've always liked. But the biggest you can get in that is an 1875 as far as I know. Sounds like they have finally gone away from using wood in the transoms, so ignore the naysayers about rotting transoms. And if you go aluminum, I really prefer roller trailers compared to bunks. It's not often, but I've heard of instances where rivets have come loose from power loading on bunks. For the life of me, I don't know how that exactly happens, but my Lund sitting on a roller loads very nicely and is as dry when I take it out of the water as when I put it in the water. [/QUOTE]
