We have a Lowe Limited Edition 18.5. Modified bottom....we also fish out of a G3 22ft pontoon. I do prefer the pontoon for drifting and fishing off the front with spot lock. If I was to purchase another boat for crappie fishing it would be an Alumacraft. They come in 3 sizes 175,185 and 205. Exceptional stable and built for 2 up front. The 205 is a beast....quality of workmanship is beyond reproach.
