Ranger, Skeeter, Bass Cat, Phoenix, Nitro are probably the top selling lines. There are other fine boats that don't make the top list. They all produce boats in your category. Each has strengths and weaknesses.
Everyone here, including me, will have an opinion. There is no short cut. You will have to SEE what you like and what is in your budget.
I'll write you a novel on why you should buy a Skeeter !!
This.......what boat appeals to your eyes and how do you want it laid out and ride. I like Bass Cats, Rangers, and Tritons but would ride a Skeeter, Nitro, or any other brand if the deal is right. As this virus gets a hold of our economy there will be a ton of used rigs for sale in every shape, size, and age shortly; some deeply discounted just to get out of the payments. If you are thinking new I'd probably wait a bit and see how this plays out. This might hit the new boat market so hard they get cheaper too and you might wind up loosing a ton of equity. like I said, It's all still got to play out, so we'll see.
