19 foot, 200 hp.

Will it compete with a fiberglass boat in price, features and performance.
I want to see it rigged a tuned for fishing.

A 19 foot, 200hp boat should be around 70 mph. Lets see what this one does when its propped right. As it is its not chined like some good performing boats so its going to be a little different.

The msrp for the 150hp version is 35k. Not sure what the standard features are.

Here is something everyone needs to remeber. Aluminum wded boats are very durable. Except after abuse they gain a bunch of hooks and bends in the hull. My duck boats look like wash boards. Performance wise this can make them perform poorly. Hooks in the wrong spots can make them dangerous. They will loose bowlift and speed. Sometimes lean and do wild things. HOOKS are BAD!! There is absolutely 0 ways to fix them. These new high performance aluminums are nice, but they are not as durable as a glass hull.

I was always under the assumption planes were riveted because of they change altitude. Aluminum shrinks and expands.
