quote:well,they also make regular ole boats that are built just as well.
That is one sweet boat that is likely out of my price range.
An old friend who passed several years ago used to let me take his 20' Laguna out anytime I wanted. Boat ran in 5" of water and did arond 40mph with a 4 stroke yamaha on a jackplate.
That's 40 mph on an over 20' hull!

Damn that laguna is one fine aluminum flats boat.
Anyway GEAUXLPOST, that G3 is a nice first boat as well. I have had alumacraft and polarkraft. My polarkraft was a 17' w/ 90 yam. You can never have enough hp unless you are getting one of the riveted aluminum that academy sells. Go with max if it all possible but if money is a determining factor don't go less than 50hp. Hell I have a 250 on my current boat and it is rated at unlimited HP and wish I would have gone with the 300 now that I look back on it. But of course at the time of purchase I was trying to save money.
