The wife has decided. The Triumph is out of the question now. She and I
both liked the Scout better. We'll be moving to NC in about a year and a
half, and this looks to be easily towable to various lakes and the ocean.
Any comments?

The transom isn't open, but I'm hoping it will be pretty safe anyway.


Good choice! It is a locally made boat, too.... so, if you need
customer service you can walk in.

I have found over the years that the wife and family lose interest in
the boat
rather quickly. Couple of boats back I quit considering what they
wanted and bought the features that filled my needs. I like to boat
and to fish. Wife commented a couple of years ago that she was happy
that the kids were older and didn't need her to look after them on the
boat. Good boating to you and have a great day.

Well, I still have to be nice. She's the one working now, and keeping me in
the style to which I've grown accustomed. That includes golfing and
boating!
