I own both an aluminum boat and a glass boat and I like both very much.

I really don't want to rehash the glass vs aluminum arguements. You can
check the archives at Bass Boat Central or Az Bass Zone and read hundreds
if not thousands of posts on the subject.

There are new glass boats in the low teens also. Stratos and Nitro of
course come to mind.

That being said you have settled on a good boat. G3 has managed to
become one of the top respected aluminum boat manufacturers. I don't
know which dealerships you have looked at, but you might be able to get a
deal on a new '06 from Kelly Leigh here in Yuma at River Marine. Kelly
bought out Davidson Marine and the inventory of Colorado River Marine and
is now the Skeeter/Ranger/G3/Waco dealer in the area. He may want to
move some of the boats he just got from buying out the inventory of
Colorado River Marine. Can't hurt to give him a call and see what he has.
(928) 783-6502. Of course I don't know how Ca might penalize you for
buying a boat out of state.

Good Luck



Thanks a lot for the info Bob!

California will get you for the local sales tax when you go to register the
boat. Called "Use Tax". If you buy out of state, list the sales price
higher for the trailer and lower for the boat when splitting up the cost
basis. The local tax man will send you a property tax bill each year on the
boat, but the trailer is $20 for 5 year "Permanent Plates".
