i am currently in this same dilemma. I am 50/50 on going tiller vs Single console. Currently have DC.

For walleye fishing i'd take a tiller all day every day. But getting a decent casting platform in the back of a tiller leaves a lot to be desired.

Any console boat has much better cast ability (at least what i have seen).

If you make long runs generally the consoles are nicer, faster...however some of the big tiller setups are ok...but then you big motor and need a kicker on your tiller boat, which kind of defeats the purpose in a way.

I have been close to pulling the trigger on a couple of 20ft tillers, but just cant quite get myself to do it. (yet)

I still think the 690VS might be the best all around boat, but they are all getting old and finding a nice one is tricky. Still wish they made that boat new, or would sell the molds to someone lol.
