I have an 1850 Fish Hawk with a dual console and agree with what erico said. When I bought my boat last year, I had the same needs as you. I needed to be able to have the four seats in the main area, wanted good casting decks and ample storage. I went with the dual console for the wife and to me it doesn't take that much away from the space since the boat is plenty wide and the front deck is plenty large. We also bought a tube last year and with the 140 suzuki it pulls things just fine. For the money, I don't think you can go wrong. I also looked at the other brands and have always been partial to Lunds because my dad had them, but a friend of ours has a 20' Lund Pro V and my front deck is quite a bit more roomy that his.
All those brands are quality, so shop around and see what works best for you and the family.....After all they are the ones who allow us to do what we do so it's good to make them comfortable as well.
Good luck,
I have a dual console now and I hate it.
I wanted a tiller steer but lost that arguement with my wife. Single console was the compromise. As for the I pilot without the footpedal. I have the foot pedal and original head for the trolling motor yet. I am devising a quick change wiring system to be able to take the i pilot off if i don't want to use it. |
