Given that young children will be in the boat Mike, I would not even think twice and get the riveted hull.

 

I don't doubt that you could buy the welded hull and have a super boat, Mike. But something to consider is that should you have a hull problem while up there with the wife and kids on your yearly vacation, it'd be a snap to repair a few rivets as opposed to a cracked hull. You at least would not have lost you and your family's vacation time.

I would have added that to my post but you told me not to say anything!

The first hand feedback from you guys has been appreciated. I'm still talking with both guys though, nothing's been done yet.

 

Thanks again!

If something like that happened when I was there I have at least 3 other boats that belong to friends at my disposal, so no big deal.

Assuming you have a normal summer this year with no unexpected tragedies I expect to see you at some point. Always have steaks in the fridge. ;)

 

 

Forget both of those boats and buy my Ranger.....

 

 

Not the style of boat I need buddy.
