Hi guys, I'm looking at boats for the spring. I'm in a 17ft glass bass boat currently. I took a job down in central IL and would like a boat that has a Kicker for the HP restrictions down here. I have minimal experience with Tuffy and none with Recon, but I really like the layouts of both for musky fishing. Anyone on here care chime in with some pro's or con's of either brand? I'm looking at 17 foot deep V models because some of my favorite bodies of water in the UP near my cottage have less than desirable launches. I'd consider 19 ft models, but I don't want to sacrifice all of my skinny water abilities I have in my bass boat. How well would these boats handle water such as LSC or LOTW for once a year trips? Also, would an 8 hp kicker be enough or go 9.9? Any insight towards this topic would be greatly appreciated, big purchase for me and I'd love to get as many opinions as I can from people with experience.

Thanks
