Location: Eagan, MN | Fantigua, I'm in the same 'boat' as you (pun intended). The boats I'm considering are the Ranger 618 (console version), Tuffy 1700, and Alumacraft Navigator. All 17-18', big 8' rod lockers, sit relatively low on the water, good muskie layouts, and can serve double duty w/ the family. I don't have experience w/ any of them yet, but will at least take test rides before I buy. I'm currently in a 17' Bass Tracker, which isn't bad but I really need to get away from the bass layout, which for me is not ideal. Good luck w/ your decision. |
