[QUOTE="Hookin8easy, post: 112193, member: 1403"] We've decided on upgrading our boat come fall or spring, our minds are made up on layout, just looking between a few manufacturers and looking for input to help decide. The models were looking into would be a stratos 386, triton 186 allure, crestliner super hawk, alumacraft trophy 185. Weights are not that far off from the aluminums to the glass, glass has many options that if upgraded to on the aluminums brings them much closer in price. Will the aluminums provide a smooth dry ride at that size? How much of a pain is the glass to pull on shore with, even with keel guard?? Looking at staying around a 150 for any of the above-Mercury or Yamaha?? The triton allure is a dam nice boat but curious why a guy doesn't see more of them out there, apples to apples very close to stratos price. Any input is appreciated, and yes I did look at the skeeters too but wanted less bow room and more cockpit space [/QUOTE]
