Couple small bling upgrades. The stock ZX cooler lid is junk.

You all have some beautiful vessels! Primarily throughout my fishing career aside from running a Nitro Boat nearly 20 years ago I have primarily been fishing out of Triton Boats. I always enjoyed my Tritons and had very little problems with them aside from common motor issues, which had nothing do with the vessel itself. I certainly have more faith in a Yamaha Motor but I know that everyone has their own opinions based on the good or bad experiences in which they have had with those two brands. As far as my Triton Boats were concerned I had little to no problems with any of them. I have ridden in Ranger boats before and have been absolutely blown away at how large and wide the decks on those boats are, it is very obvious that those boats are built to last for a very long time! I would one day like to have some experience behind the wheel of a Skeeter or even a Bass Cat as I feel that they are certainly the most sexy boats on the market today. I will likely be purchasing a new bass boat towards the end of this year if my health conditions continue to improve and allow me to get back into professional fishing in 2021. From everyones experience with various boats and considering that I am primarily an offshore structure fisherman who loves when the wind is blowing extremely hard to where I have many gallons of water often being thrown over the bow of my boat while trying my best to stay over top of a productive deep-water area on those extremely windy days which boat do you think is best to handle fishing in extremely rough conditions offshore? I have bad hips so the less impact that my boat will endure during those days the better. Thank you all very much for your input and keep sharing the great pictures! The BassCat 203/Puma-Cougar hybrid may be up your ally. Think they're a special order situation now. Probably won't have quite as stable a platform as a Ranger or Skeeter, just guessing, but the ride should be exceptional. https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/13310264/203-puma-hybrid-by-basscat-boats
