Why are you fixated on aluminum boats?

I would imagine because of towing weight issues with the RAV-4.

Now, if i had a real tow vehicle I could probably get this down a bit
to the same price as the new 16 Xcalibur.

That's what I would want if I were boating where you are.

It has one thing fairly important to the 55 & over crowd... a head.
No big deal when it's only me & the wife... a **** bucket will do but
that could be awkward with company aboard.

An enclosed head is convenient but the most important thing is the
extra length and weight, both of which contribute to a better ride.
It is not a lot of fun to go slogging through a heavy chop at slow
speed. It will get you home but it does not make for a memorable day
on the water.
