Thanks everyone, so far I've had good luck with everything and caught a lot of river bass from my new Nitro. I'll tell you a brief story about a past boat purchase of mine. Back in 1995 I bought a new Tracker Pro 175 with 40 hp outboard. Back then the Tracker had rivets and a modified V hull. All I heard from folks was how big a mistake I made and should have done more research before buying that Tracker. It was a great fishing boat for many years with no issues and I even caught my largest bass from that rig on Rayburn that weighed 10.5 lbs. I know people have issues with products and have legitimate complaints but I want to also let folks know about the owners who have been satisfied with their purchases.
