Cast-Away Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 How is this information? The J.D. Powers and Associates 2008 Boat Competitive Information Study examines overall customer satisfaction based upon performance in eight factors: cabin; engine; ride and handling; helm and instrument panel; design and styling; sound system; water sports; and fishing. While J.D. Powers and Associates has an overall boat ranking list, here are the top boats in each segment: Bass Boats 1.Bass Cat 2. Ranger 3. Triton Coastal Fishing Boats 1. Grady-White 2. Boston Whaler 3. Triton E xpress Cruisers 1. Regal 2. Sea Ray Small Runabouts (16 - 19 ft.) 1. Regal 2. Sea Ray 3. Chaparral Large Runabouts (20 - 29 ft.) 1. Cobalt 2. Regal 3.

Bernie Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 That's a loaded question!. Should be more than a couple opinions here But that is why there are many different kinds and options, to each their own. Here's another good option, but I will admit a little bias. They are a good boat though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glen Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 Bernie can you do a wood bass boat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bernie Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 Anything is possible with these Glen but it would only be defeating the design. An open bottom, easy to maintain, light, strong and inexpensive are all what have made these one of the oldest boat manufacturers made in Canada.

John Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 They are definitely a thing of beauty Bernie! S.N.C., if you are looking for advice you will find many opinions on this subject, but you will need to be more specific as to what type of boat. If you are looking for info on which to base a decision, I will gladly tell you everything that I learned from 2 months of research last summer when I bought my new boat.

wiggler Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 Well I don't really own a boat except the ol' 14 'sprinbok and 9.8 merc my dad left to my brothers and I at the cottage. I've spent countless hours dreaming up the perfect boat for what I want it to do. I actually have a folder of bookmarks with boat manufacturers saved. I normally fish small lakes and occasionally hit the BOQ for monster fall walleye. Of all the boats I have drooled over I think the Alumacraft Navigator 165 would fit the bill....for me. Trimmed out with a 75hp tiller and all the electronics of course. I think I could still launch it in the lakes I like and it would also hold up to the nasty weather the BOQ throws at ya in the fall.
