I'm looking for some advice from you seasoned boat owners. I joined a local bass fishing club, as a non-boater, a few years ago and think it's time for me to plunge myself into more debt. The wife gave the ok to buy a boat, as long as it's family friendly. Have two 3 yr old kids she's afraid will fall out of a typical bass boat. I know my buddies already told me, put a life jacket on them and keep a rope handy. BUT what if I hook into a big one and can't get to them right away?? just kidding . I like the features of the ranger 619, but don't like the price tag. And from what I've read online, most of that price is the name. I'm not asking for debate on rangers. I know they're a good boat, just looking for other options. I'm looking for a low fishing style - like all bass boats, high 18 feet to low 19 feet, lots of rod storage, sits more than 2 people comfortably (4 stools or bench in the back), like the casting platform for the back, dual console, and not brand new. I'll give up a few years to save thousands. I've looked online at the Gambler, Allison, Skeeter, Triton, all the big names. What boat/model would you suggest? I went to a few dealers and of course they all said THEY had the best boat. Thanks
