[QUOTE="Fisherman25, post: 206939, member: 393"] Some good advice on here. Take brand talk with a grain of salt. Most all of these fiberglass boats are good riding and good performing boats. People just have their own preferences and human nature makes it really tough for us not to be bias. To me, the biggest thing if you’re buying new is don’t settle. Get the boat you want with the motors you want. Boat layout is a really big deal. If you don’t like to have a single tackle box or clutter laying around, buy a boat with a horseshoe. If you don’t care about that and would rather have tons of room behind your windshield, then don’t get on with a horseshoe. With the two boats you mentioned, it sounds like you want storage. If that’s the case you, Lund, Ranger, Triton and Nitro all have horseshoes and honestly are all good boats from my experience. There is big hole shot and speed differences in those boats tho so that’s something you need to look at if it concerns you. Good luck on your purchase. You will have small issues on any boat you buy, so who you buy from does matter if you don’t want what could be a quick fix to stop you from fishing for a few weeks. [/QUOTE]
