Help needed !!!

[Gilbert Scales2]

Not trying to start a war, just honest experiences. I am getting a little tired of carpet, and boat waxing. The older I get, the less I like it. I am considering buying an alum. boat. Several builders offer bass models without carpet. AlumaCraft, Xpress, to name a few. I had a flat years ago, and it was o.k.. Some folks in my area say I am nuts. They say the alum. gets real hot, and it will bother the grandkids. Others say I should not get one because of the ride. I now have a 160TF with a 90 Merc. It looks like it just came out of the showroom, 1995 model. I had the carpet replaced last year, by a pro. He used Ranger carpet. Talk me into keeping it, or buyiny alum.



Thanks,

Bubby

If its paid for KEEP IT! But then again there are some good deals on the used boat market these days.....



Glass is better!

Okay...



Want to explore the world of "what-ifs" in Aluminum boats...



Look no further than the link provided... Talk to them, they will build whatever you want in an aluminum bassboat... Looks like a flat boat, but can have a modified V-bow and a V-hull all the way back. The best part, built like a tank, bulletproof!
