[QUOTE="lostinnd, post: 137422, member: 1428"] I have considered picking up a second boat but that is also quite the hassle storing and taking care of. I will have to check some weights on boats, I didn't consider that a 17.5' aluminum boat would come even close to the reata which is seems damn heavy. I had a double bubble windshield on a ranger 620 before and it was way nicer to fish out of but the bubbles were about 6" tall so they provided absolutely no cover from wind/splash. The 1850 reata may not be a huge boat but it definitely has some weight and is tough to maneuver around docks/trees and I definitely don't beach it if there might be rocks so I can't bring it to many smaller lakes.
