fishing barge

[CardsFan]

Hey guys, I need to pick your brain about something. I'm new to boating and fishing, so new that I havent' yet purchased a boat, although i hope to remedy that within the next week or so. At first I was going to buy a G3 pf 175 with a 75 4 stroke. Demo'ed the boat last weekend, liked it fine, but there are issues.. I'm dealing with a leg I broke 2 years ago that has a plate and 8 screws in it, so getting in and out, as well as moving around in a boat bobbing up and down was making me uncomfortable, although i loved running it down the river. My wife suggested a party barge. We're currently considering an 18 or 20 footer that is rigged for fishing (g3 188f or the g3 208f ) but I have no knowledge about these types of boats.. Are they high maintenace, hard to put in or take out of the lake? I sure could use some advice from you guys that have been doing this for years... oh, before I go, I know I said i was looking at G3 pontoons, but what do you guys think of Sun Trackers? thanks for your help.
