Default New boat search beginning (with quesion at end)...

No doubt those Triton's look and run like a Cheetah on the water.

But don't give up on the Nitro Yet. I bought my first one last year.

2003
17ft, fiberglass 700 DX with a 2004 Merc Opti 115 on the back.

The boat is a little rocket, and I usually run it at about 55miles/hour

( I
will bring it down to about 45mph to troll) :-). The top end on the boat

is
about 62mph and with a stianles prop, I will probably get 65 or 67 out of
her.

The point is, unless you really want the big boat, and the big payment

that
comes along with buying the 20 and 21 footers, stick with something more
reasonable. Whether its Triton, Nitro, Skeeter or any of the other

brands,
the point is, they are all very nice, high performance bass boats. You

will
do well by any one of them. For my money, you can't beat my set up.

Do yourself a favour though...get the Hotfoot Installed. Well worth it.


Cheers,

Matt



Hi Matt,
Had given up on the idea of another Nitro until the boat show yesterday.
They have a really comparable product on the market today. I'll definitely
keep it in mind when working on negotiations!
