I posted a thread about a week ago about aluminum boats. Well, I have narrowed it down to 3 boats.

G3 Bay 18
Xpress XP18CC
Excel VSC18

I am open to hearing about some other boats that are similar to these. What are the OBs thoughts on these choices?

Whichever I could find slightly used. All would be a good boat IMO.

unless you have a specific reason for getting this flat bottom hull....dont get it. The hyper lift (bay series) hull will ride 100000000x better and is worth the money especially since you said you will be in some bays with it

Sorry, just saw this thread... I love the hyperlift bay hull. Much, much better than a flat bottom hull. MarshMan tried to tell me to get the bigger of the two motors offered, but I didn't listen. With just the wife and I, it does well, but put another person or a full icechest, and it lacks on holeshot and top end.
