I weigh in at 350lbs. Do I need to stay away from a flat bottom boat? Most aluminum boats I have looked at are not very deep. But I do not need anything fancier than a plain ol aluminum boat.
Your opinions are appreciated.
Thanks in advance

I would take bottom width into consideration... 48" would be best for a 15 footer but you don't see many...I would not consider any flat bottom less than 42" bottom width.....
