[QUOTE="pluckem, post: 234607, member: 843"] One mans con is another’s pro and boat design is all about compromises so keep that in mind. All three manufactures you mentioned are quality. I assume the comparable boats are the Pro Guide and Competitor. Some things to think about. I think the 75hp max is underpowered. Guys have more gear and electronics than ever before. Both the comparable Lund and Alumacraft are rated to 90. The Yarcraft only has. 85” beam while the Lund and Alumacraft have 93 and 95”. That will give a lot more room and storage in a shorter boat like these. The Yarcraft does not have center rod storage. Lund and Alumacraft do. There’s a reason almost all new fishing boats you see have a center rod locker. Very convenient. I haven’t looked in detail but I’m guessing the Yarcraft has a bit less storage space over all. The Yarcraft is fiberglass which is a plus. I like the thought of not having all the wood in a boat. It will also likely track better in the water. The narrower beam plays into that as well. However in this size of boat I don’t think aluminum is at a huge dissadvantage. Shorter tillers like this, your going to get wet and none of them will be that pleasant to be in during rough water.
