I've got both, but I sooner fish from the smaller tiller. My smaller one is a 16' Princecraft Holiday with a 50 Honda tiller. Still fishing, you can sit, trolling your at your rod, turn on a dime, back trolling a breeze, fish smaller lakes, lighter trailering, easier on gas, more floor space. The only thing I find is on big water, big boat with a wind shield blocks the bad weather. If I had to do it all over I would buy Spiel's boat. NICE 17' Lund Tiller I've fished in it, Beauty machine. One day I'm going to steal it if Brook don't bite me.
