Why do you need a bass boat when you already have a bay boat?

I recommend the gambler...it is by far the ugliest of the group!

Well, assuming like most folks you like to fish with a partner the
only one which really has useable deck in front and behind the helm is
the Stratos. The others put both anglers on the front deck or limit
one to a very small read deck. Don't want to get a hook in the hat, we
don't need no dead hippies fouling up the lake...;)

Just a thought...

Me, I like the last one at first glance. The Gambler is ugly.

What do you plan on doing with it? If you are out on Michigan or something
big, would want the bigger ones. But for hauling around and dropping into
smaller bass lakes like Northern Ontario I would want to keep it in the
18-20' range. And I like right sized power, too much HP is like not enough
as 2MPH isn't what I would want if going bass fishing, part of the fun is
getting there.

Too big for what I want to do for the next few years.

And I have other reasons.

I kind of like the Gambler, although it isn't a two person boat from
what I hear - strictly single person if you are fishing on a regular
basis.

I'm getting out of the "big" water game for a while. Maybe get back
into fishing the amateur bass trail for a few years.

Then you likely want the biggest boat you can comfortably haul on the bass
trail. When you say "big" water game, I am not sure I would use a 20' for
catching 15' whites.

Ever been fishing for bass on the Hudson River or Lake Champlain?

20 foot is a minimum size. :)

Then again, that kind of qualifies as "big water" doesn't it?

Eh - most of the time it will be smaller water, but you gotta be ready
for big water.

Or something like that. :)

Color will be white hull with blue/gold accents - like my Ranger.

Opinions wanted.


They would go faster with a Merc or Yami. . . .

Like hell they would. My boat is heavy and I can take 18 foot bass
boats off the line with it. ETEC baby.

Although I've often wondered what it would do with a Yamaha HPDI of
the same horsepower. I ran a 2400 Bay Ranger once with a 250 Yamaha
HPDI and that thing was as quick as mine - faster actually because I
went from Watch Hill RI to Montauck NY in just under 17 minutes on
flat dead calm water, no wind and The Race was at ebb. The best I've
done in my Ranger is 21 minutes, but that was against The Race rip
most of the way.

I dont know what your problem is, but I'll bet
its hard to pronounce.
