I have an 18' fiberglass, and I feel like I am always struggling with the wind more than any other boat. I've met some of my buddies on the water out in the middle of the lake and I am always drifting away from them. They all have aluminum. One of the guys boats is the same length as mine, and is a little taller. I figured his would blow away faster, especially being 500lbs lighter. But his boat stayed almost still, and my boat was blowing away like I had my trolling motor set on level 4. Confuses the heck outta me....
