Not as durable? I've had both, and the aluminums eventually always leaked, if only just a little. I'd say glass is every bit as durable as aluminum. Just that it seems to be ok to hit rocks with aluminum because it's not as pretty.

As for one of the glass choices you listed? I'm not sure I could say one is "better" than the other. You'll have to crawl around them, and depeding on how they are rigged, make the decision. Note that if you troll, it's more difficult to put a kicker on a bass boat, than on a V-hull boat.

Take a close look at the Tuffy X-190. I'd take that over a bass boat anyday.

Good luck with your selection.
