I agree with most a center console is hard to beat and you will not have problems fishing 3 people or casting. Only problem is get under a low bridge. Keep in mind with most center consoles you can take the bar down. I'm not familiar with guntersvillie so I can't say.

I would love to have a center console for the open waters they are great boats very comfortable and sturdy but I fish a lot of back waters on my home lake that don’t have ramp access and I can only afford one boat so I’m sticking with my xpress 18’6” . Very comfortable ride only 3 things I would like to be different and that would be a4 stroke motor a live well up front and a step at the front deck!
I agree with lowe175 the windshield and bar can come off. Here is a pic of mine. If you take the windshield off the center console it would be about the same height as the motor when trimmed down. Attachment 285489

Drucker, I've noticed it being real close to the top of the motor if that bar was gone. I don't know that I've ever ridden in a cc. I have owned mud boats in the past and I liked driving while standing.
I'm going fishing this weekend. I'll get a measurement from the water line to the top of the center console with and without the bar/windshield.
If you have back problems you won't like a CC. Leaning post are not comfortable and most are not wide enough to sit on and most don't have a back rest. Get you a SC and one that rides good. I just went from a 22FT Scout CC to a 20FT Ranger Angler and love to be able to sit down in a comfortable seat and drive. And I can fish for everything that I want to out of it.

Got mine with seats. When catfishing, I can spin them around and watch rod tips.
I agree about the leaning post. I don’t care for them.

That's a sweet ride my friend
