Not for me either. other boats less$ and are great boats. smaller boat builders just dont have the same wholesale pricing. plus looks to me that anyone owning this boat is a selfish fisherman. a huge front deck that is more than anyone would ever need and a tiny box for his friend to stand on. owner must not think much of his friends? plus how fast is too fast? i want to have fun and fish maybe win a tounament not die in one lol.
