Mike, thanks for offering to stop by the dealer but don't bother. I'm not ready to take the plunge yet. I just didn't know if there was a local dealer who carried them. If so I just wanted to get some info from them.
Seems like the welded aluminum is the way to go and I'd love to see a few more places carry them, but so far what I've seen is pretty big $$$.
I've got a lot of research to do to see if its even worth doing. if it was short money thats one thing, but serious $$$$ means I'd need to use it more than I probably would.

If you had a nice tin boat you would use it all the time. My 14 foot tin boat, not welded, is going on 15 years old and never a leak and I have done no maintience at all. Picked it up for $700 with engine. A purchase you will never regret if you like to fish. paul

My Mirro-Craft 14' Deep Fisherman is 36 years old, riveted every one inch on center, nada leaks. It's still fishing and has some history besides. Lost count how many bass, blues, False Albacore, Bonito, Spanish Mackerel, Fluke, Flounder, codfish, Seabass, Scup, Salmon, Trout, Smallies, Largemouth and Pickerel have ended up on the deck of that thing. Still gotta a lot of life left in her. She has circumnavigated the Elizabeth Islands, Monomoy, fished Cape Cod Bay, Buzzards Bay, Narragansett Bay, launcehd into the Surf at Race Point and countless other places. She gets you into places ( and out of) places bigger boats cannot go and catches more fish when she does. I love that little Bitch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  |
Why even try.........

That's the exact boat I got too Steve. 14 foot mirro-craft deep fisherman. It's a ball. The Quintrex is a beautiful boat and well made. P.

Thanks guys. I'll have to go visit the dealier in cohasset & check it out. I'm in no hurry so I'll go talk to them and see what they have, and if a deal comes along in the offseason who knows.
With plymouth/duxbury bay right here I've got an awful lot of protected water to play in and on nice days I'd be able to work the shorelne around rocky hill all the way down to manomet... sweeeeet
