I had a 20 foot CC for about 6 years that I bought for striper fishing, but I ended up crappie fishing 90% of the time from it. It was great and I would love to got back to one. It provided an awesome work platform and plenty of room to move around. It was also easier than my bass boat to carry all the gear I wanted to carry. The other positives were no carpet and it worked great for the occasional trip to the coast to chase red drum. If you have the ability to get one, get it. Just my two cents, good luck on your decision.
