I have no idea. I guess I would ask you guys for advice! Of course, then I would get 20 different opinions, maybe afford 20 different boats with my winnings, ahh to dream!

Zook, you pretty much nailed everything on the head with that Bullet. I was thinking I wanted a shorter Bullet boat, didnt know they made that model though. I bet with the 115 it even gets good gas mileage relativly speaking.

I have never seen an Allison in person, but that might be close to the top of my list along with several other hand made boats. I would really like to have a G boat someday too: http://gamblerboats.com/Gambler2200.html

/hotlinked
They seem to have an ample front deck.....for ballroom dancing.
First edit: Gambler used to make a center console that was more like a little cockpit hole, I want that too rather than consoles.

Unless your partner is a midget you're gonna have a mutiny sooner rather than later. And...those windshield frames are wayyyy toooo far back.
A sexy boat, though.

Those things are getting better all the time and garnering more attention since gas prices soared. Properly loaded, balanced and rigged with the maximum allowable HP engine (run at 2/3 throttle!), they offer some fuel savings over most of the glass boats. Also, they are generally less costly to tow.
Downside? Well, some Tracker dealers have lousy reputations. On windy days the tin boats will drive you nerts when on the trollmotor.
Still, there are lots of folks out fishing that otherwise would be on the bank were it not for all those tin boats.
I likes 'em OK, so long as they are the wider and less tippy ones that are available lately.
