George great question, I have never asked you, what would be yours? 


fishing user avatarMacP reply : 

I'd like to upgrade my SeaArk to a Stealth 210 with a 175 4 Stroke.  My 18' only has a 115 on it.  It's plenty fast, but the little extra size and little extra motor would be nice!

 

If I were a greedier man, the Allison 21 XST is awfully nice.


fishing user avatartnriverluver reply : 

I have owned mine. Stratos 201 Pro XLDC.  It was great fun and all but now I am happier fishing out of my aluminum flat bottom and my alumacraft  bass boat.or even my little 8 ft Bass Hunter.  These small boats can take me places the big Stratos just couldn't get to and I catch way more fish out of them.  Only real advantage was fishing big rough waters or needing to make a long run in a hurry.  I don't tournament fish any more so the long runs aren't an issue.


fishing user avatarLewi reply : 

With money no object as I think all bass boats are overpriced I would have to pick up a Skeeter i-class and for the heck of it strap on a 300 yamaha sho for some wow factor!  Now, hopefully it catches fish.

fishing user avatarCatt reply : 

Champion Mean 16 with a 115 ;)


fishing user avatarbasshole8190 reply : 

A 20 foot river pro so i could run the river and not worry about getting sunk or stuck and or a 21 foot skeeter or stratos with a 250 4 stroke yamaha both would be rigged to the max

Customized to my use though.... but like Jfrancho i would have a few boats and this one would just be for the river and as far as lakes go.....no clue because if i got a river pro or a rockproof boat i am not sure i would venture to lakes all that often.

haven't seen those before but i can't see how it works since it uses a prop but it obviously does lol  


fishing user avatarJ Francho reply : 

It's a jet drive. No prop. ;)

take a look at the pics...i thought it was a jet at first too.  something about how the hull design pushes water up and through the prop but the boat is essentially on top of the water and not plowing through it.

I get how verstile this would be for shallow water. My question is how does it get back on plane from a stop in 3.5" of water?


fishing user avatarFishinDaddy reply : 

It takes 6" to take off.  Crazy.


fishing user avatarJCiurej34 reply : 

I'd get a Legend Alpha 211 like this one.

fishing user avatarBuckMaxx reply : 

There are a lot of boats that come to mind. I like the older ones like the late 90's Gamblers that were the sportscars of the era. I would probably build a big shop and become a rescue for old bass boats. I mean what the hell they got em for horses. haha

 

I like the new boats they are very nice but the pricetag turns me off! I have decided to keep my 92' Ranger and deck it out with all the fancy stuff the new ones have like great electronics power poles etc. When the motor craps I 'll buy a new motor for it. As long as the hull is good.

So , you sayin I'm simply predictable ?? LOL !!


fishing user avatarJ Francho reply : 

Tunnel hulls also create a mass of water between the pontoons that allow a prop or jet drive to work. One of the pics clearly shows a jet drive as well. There's usually a hydraulic jack plate on them too.

Yea but I still plan on hitting the lottery.  $568 Mill can buy one of these measly $18 mill boats no problem!
