Which brand boat?

[48 OFF]

Looking for a 22-24 foot center console fiberglass bay boat. Would like Something with front and rear decks to double as freshwater boat. Freshwater/lakes is prob where it will spend 90 percent of it's life. Don't really like the large pronounced bows of some boats and don't intend to go of shore. Need to be able to mount a trolling motor. Am currently looking at blue wave, skeeter, and pathfinder. What your thoughts on these and let me know if there are any others I am missing. Thanks in advace for your responses.

good boats, also look at scout, key west, what you are describing, is like a flats or bay boat. wide stable boat, flat fore and aft deck.

Shoot, those are all good choices. For modest price, add Lake & Bay and also Sea Hunt. For the nosebleed tier there are also Ranger, Venture, & Yellowfin. If you're going to be using the bow troller a whole lot, you may have more success in the 20-22 foot sizes.

Thanks guys appreciate the replies. Will look into these boats. Also looking at the 20 ft aluminum center consoles. Just checked one out called a Delta Marsh. Has anybody got any experience with this paticular boat. Also anybody else that builds a wide center console heavy gauge aluminum boat. Its for my dad and might end up in the flats from time to time. But like mine will spend most of its time in freshwater. Thanks

just looked at pictures of a 2007 DELTA MARSH 200CC. looks like it would beat you to death in choppy water.
