    Default Opinions/experience about which boat to choose.


    I'm looking to upgrade soon from my Bass tracker. Looking at either the bass tracker 190 or the G3 sportsman 17. I've never had a problem with the bass tracker/mercury motor I have but have heard some really good things about the G3/Yamaha combo too. Any suggestions or opinions appreciated.

    Just my own personal opinion....I think the G3 is an upgrade to the Tracker....kinda like in trucks, the GMC is an upgrade to the Chevy Silverado...just my own observation...never owned either boat...

    I have owned a Tracker.....and I have owned a G3 Eagle 185. I liked my Tracker boat better than the G3 but I liked the Yamaha four stroke that was on the G3 best motorwise. I have owned a lot of boats. I have a XV 860 SeaArk now with a four stroke Yamaha and i think its the best boat I have ever had.
    I have spent most my life fishing........the rest I wasted.

    I've owned the tracker also and now have the Ranger 188c with mercury 115 four stroke and really loving it. Was once told by a good friend it don't cost but a little bit more to go first class.

    Had a 190 tx. All the seats rotted out after two years and it was kept under a cover. Made out of particle board. Front end rises and it takes some time to plane out. Has carpet, hated that, It ran good with the merc 90,
    I spent more time and money this time and bought the an excel 203. Best boat I've seen or owned.
