Help in selecting Aluminum boat - namvet66 - 07-01-2008

We are in the market to purchase an aluminum bass boat.

We have owned 2 Bass Trackers, but thought maybe something else out there might serve us better are as well.

We are retired and for the most part will be fishing just the 2 of us, but would like the options to fish 4 people.

Please give me your thoughts on a good boat for us to look at.

Thanking you in advance

there are 2 ways that the aluminum boats a made,rivited and welded.though the rivited boats have come along way ,i still lean toward the welded version.they can take alot more abuse,with less chance of leaking
