Had an Astro fish/ski back in the day. Never had a problem with it.

I had an 18' with a 150 years ago. It was a good running boat. I didn't have any complaints with it. Was fairly dry and fished well.

My first f/g bass boat was 1990-17' Astro with 115 Mercury. I loved that boat.

Great boats as long as the transom is not rotted. There is a good chance the transom may have some rot going on due to age and there is a place in the back that can hold water causing it to rot. Otherwise good boats.

I had one in the 80's , nice boat , the valve for the auxiliary gas tank was mislabeled
from the factory , The tank 2 position was " off " and Off was tank 2.

Only time I have ever had to be towed in off the lake.
