I want to buy a boat but need advice

I will primarily use this boat in the swamps, hitting trees, and hunting. Rarely will I be able to use it to fish bass. I would like to be able to use it in Toledo Bend but I will only be able to do so maybe once a year. What should I get? Gatortail, outboard, center console? Most of my time on the water will be Summer and Winter months. Fall and Spring are busy seasons for me.

40 hp tiller handle outboard with a jack plate on 16' jon boat, can do everything you just mentioned.

We need your budget to properly answer the question.

Buy all that you can afford, it beats getting “2-foot-itis” every couple of years…

Swamps and TB once a year ?? Def aluminum and def 16-18’ Center console would probably be advisable for the room and stability. Plenty to choose from good luck
