    Default I think I've made a decision


    Unless something happens I think I have made my mind up on a new boat. I tested a 14.5' deepV utility boat out last night. Suprisingly stable and the wife agreed, the taller sides are appealing for the future crappie fishing twins. So I think Im going with this Alumacraft : 2011 Models : Vs & Ts V-14. I will only have to take out one seat, and build a deck, using this as my inspiration Alumacraft : 2011 Models : Fisherman 145. I'd like to get this boat but it is expensive! I'm crafty enough to take v14 and make look similar. I'm very limited with models due my 15" shaft motor. Most utility v's are 20" transoms. But anyway, I think this is the winner, havent decided black or white exterior color yet.

    Im not sure... How much do you think its worth?? Its like a '77 or something. If it isnt worth but a few hundred bucks, I'll keep it. I am not pressed for storage.
