You might want to look at the construction of the boats...The Lowe doesn't have ANY wood in it, so you near have to worry about the transom rotting or the floor rotting! I've got an OLD Tracker..it was old when I bought it, so maybe I shouldn't say anything but since I've had it I've put in a new floor, new carpet, a new front deck, and a new brace under the front pedestal seat! I've spent as much or more fixing this boat than what I paid for it!!!! I'm getting sick of fixing it but I can't talk the boss into letting me get a new one, she just doesn't get it that the old one is costing more than a new one!:D :D
