[QUOTE="Allen, post: 224141, member: 389"] I'm just curious here if anyone (I'm sure someone has) regretted going from an aluminum hulled boat over to a glass hull? I'm contemplating getting a different boat over the next year or two and have really been thinking about going glass for the ride. But that's only one part of the equation, beaching is another, and I'm sure there are things that those who have done it only learned in hindsight. One thing that I thought was interesting over this past weekend is that I watched several glass boats in moderately high waves and was amazed at how much they still bounced up and down. In particular, these were Skeeter, Stratos, and Triton boats. From a distance they sure seemed to bob up and down a heck of a lot like my old Lund Fisherman when they put their bow into the wind. The Toon was a hell of a lot smoother!! [/QUOTE]
