Most people use these boats as a pleasure craft just as much or more so than they use them to fish.

Plus, you can't really act like a baller at the prop stop in an 18' frontier.

And at 26', I'm going yellowfin if $ isn't the problem.

I'm a YF fan, but even if I had the cheeze for it I'm not sure I would buy it.

My pick would be the seavee 270z if money wasn't a issue.

Also available in twins. I seen a pic on fb of one with twin yammy 300s.

I like that one. High enough bow to stay dry in the shite and twins are a must.

If I ever own a boat more than 21-22' it will be 25+ with twins.

Nice rides, but be careful with the fact Bass Pro now mass sells Mako now. I've never seen build quality stay the same or improve once a large outfit takes over sales like in this situation. I know someone who has that boat, but pre-Bass Pro, fishes good and rides well for a 18 footer.

Beautiful boats. A friend of mine has one. Have heard they don't ride as well as they look.

Is that Line X Freeman a bayboat? It has a trolling motor on it.

There's not a lot of choices there.

My buddy has the exact same boat but with Blue trim and a Merc on it. It's fine and yes, prep your anus.

WP, I'm not positive, but I would make a bet that pic is in the canals at Cat Island off the coast of Mississippi.
