I looked at the Tuffy Esox Mag last fall and it looks like a great boat. The only concern I have is when the wind gets a little strong how wet will we get?
You won't be as dry when running in wind and waves as a comparable aluminum v-hull, but it's not terrible. I fished out of an Esox Mag this fall on the Mani chain when the wind was going pretty good - I definitely got wet when we fired up the big motor, but not absolutely soaked through or anything like that.
I liked fishing out of the boat - sitting that low on the water is nice. And the wind doesn't push you around nearly as much when you're fishing. It was more stable than I expected it to be. Only had one time when a wakeboarding-type boat ran past us that the boat really bounced up and down. |
