We looked at the Lowe first and I liked it better but he liked the tracker, so its his call

Torch, he wouldnt wait that long, he was now in the mood and had the wife talked into it and so he jumped on a chance to get a boat

Or you could buy OleMiss' 16 ff CC F&F for a good price too. I like those Lowe Stingers over Tracker myself.

I like most anything over the trackers.

Trackers are not bad boats, it's just that there is so much better out there. You do get a lot of boat for the money and they are laid out well for the available space, but they do have their draw backs.

I had that exact Stratos before my Triton and ABSOLUTELY LOVED THAT BOAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just needed one bigger to put 3-4 bodies in.

Ifn it was up to me I would go with the Lowe or have me one built by F&F cause 2 of the guys here at work have had them built for them and I like them both

he is passing it up and I think he will be fine, he wont have the same depth finder, trolling motor on there for long any way, well if he is anything like me, didnt like TM or FF on the boat but no cheaper to take it off

The TM that comes on Trackers is about 350 bucks......the FF they use is about a 100 bucks....OK, thats 450 total......so 900 bucks to insure it? Something does not seem right about this.
