    If you buy an aluminum bay boat, do yourself a favor and look for the pad ride hulls. They make a huge difference in the way they ride in ROUGH water. Learn the difference in the hull designs BEFORE you buy.
    We only sell the Best. Ranger, Xpress, Yamaha, Suzuki, Tohatsu.

    Bill is wise, there is a big difference in performance and rough water ride.

    Down to Nautic bay, skeeter or ranger. Really leaning toward glass now. I want a better ride on my home lake in rough water.

    Do what you got to do man, never heard one person regret maxxing one out, can't count the times I've heard folks regret that they didn't max out.
    Having a big glass ride will be a major difference in ruff water but you got to be able to push it, you make some pretty long runs man and over time it will matter.
    Either way, just an opinion man. Good luck finding a rig.

    I with you speedy Gonzalo's (Rees). Lol. I have just found some deals on leftovers with 150 yamis. I found a skeeter SX 210 12 grand off Msrp. But they want full pop with ordering a new one that has a 200. It will run mid 40 that's as fast as my last boat.
