    Never my favorite though, and a great lesson to NEVER buy a flat bottom boat to use in flat water over about 5 mph, if that. I'm surprised I can still walk today after taking that kind of a beating for a few years--then sold it to George. For a river boat though, it was a dream. https://www.billkiene.com/forums/sho...highlight=sled
    That is very cool looking, a bit small for my fat arse- likely gonna be a rig in the 16-18 ft range with a jet. The g3 hulls seems like a good fit for that from what I read.

    I recently saw and went over a brand new 18' Lowe Roughneck tiller steer, very impressed. G3 is OK too, but this one to me was a standout. Small jet, stable, tons of room, not a ton of money. I think they are 3° boats so it's going to be a rough ride on any kind of chop.
