Excellent answers!! I will be using it for some of the smaller tournies around our area as well as just going out and getting my fishing fix...I'm one of those guys that don't care about the weather and don't mind when its a little rough (nothing crazy)....I just want to be able to get out when I want and not have to count on my Buddies....I've pretty much made up my mind on aluminum....I don't want to have to do TOO much work on it in the spring just to get on the water....thanks everyone!!!

15K US or 15K Cananadian? If its U.S. Currency, thats quiet a nice budget for a fishing boat. It wont be a tracker bass chaser speedy gonzales jet bass boat, but 15 K can by a hellowa 2-3 yearold used fishing vessel. Don't buy new, its just a waste of money.

15K? Thats 3 times what I paid for my car. lol.
Man that will be a nice rig. I have an idea, there is no faster way to get out there fishing than with this rig.
You will never have an excuse to get that line wet..oh yeah I can see it now. But it doesn't come in aluminum...  :'>
Oh I won't forget the gear heads,,arg, arg more power.

totally agree with beermaster. New is a total waste. But it is nice to know who you are buying from, so you know how they treated their boat.

I've owned aluminum and to me it does not come close to glass for ride
I'm fishing on big water and don't have to worry about rocks etc.
if I was fishing smaller lakes then I would go aluminum

Qmaze, LMAO!!!! When I was a kid there was one of those car/boats that sank in Pike Creek....we used to go passed it every weekend and my Dad would say, Son someday that will be yours....LOL!!!
If it wasn't for the smaller northern lakes I would go glass....just don't want to have to redo the bottom every other season.....
Thanks again for all the replies!!!

I wonder where the bilge pump is on that aqua car. I would just love to have that. I bet alot of launch fee's would be saved.
h2o<--says could build a fishing deck in the back.

Hey Chrispy,
I think this may the used boat I saw for sale. It looks in awesome condition.
Not the exact one, but I'm sure this is the model.

That is a really nice boat!!! I think Mark is right, little too small for the lakes I'll be fishing....that's always the case, either too small or if it's the right size it's usually just slightly out of my price range....
