I'ld have to say that glass boats certainly have their place. I have two of
them, (The Skeeter is for sale) but a well rounded TV show might need to be
open to possibilites that aren't necessarily your own. You might consider
other options. An aluminum jet would be the perfect boat in some
circumstances. I love my Baker tunnel hull, but I just ordered a Waco 16
for back water running myself. If you could have balanced that out with the
potential sponsor you might have been able to offer more and serve more
useful information to more viewers. JMHO.

I do understand your view, and I agree with you. I'm just not sure that you
shouldn't be open to other possibilities in your base choice about glass
boats.

Oh, I'm not saying that I won't ever film a show from anything other than a glass boat. That's not
it and if circumstances warrant a change, i.e. sturgeon fishing on the Snake River, or fishing some
remote backwater, I'll certainly use what is appropriate. But, much of what I'll be doing can be
done from a glass boat. I might have to reconsider my choices and go with more of a multi-species
boat.

The ultimate would be to get a sponsor that has both a glass and aluminum line of boats and get one
of each! Any offers? :-)
