Greetings All.

My wife and I are looking to get our 1st boat. I think I've narrowed
our choice down to two boats, and was looking for some opinions.

#1: 2002 17 foot Mako center console

#2 2003 Scout 162

We live in Tampa, FL and currently do a lot of bridge and pier
fishing. It's just the two of us, and we plan on doing mostly inshore
or near shore fishing.

One important aspect of the boat is it needs to ride somewhat smooth.
My wife has back and neck problems.

Thanks for your time!
Take Care,
