[QUOTE="richg99, post: 420605, member: 4376"] I concur with the above posts. I'm 250 and most anyone who fishes with me will be around 200. I recently bought a 1652 G3 and my buddies all comment on how stable it is. I never owned a 1448, but did own a 1648. Even though it was 16 feet long, it wasn't anywhere near as stable as the 1652. A couple of inches in width makes a big difference. 4 inches as part of 48 inches is about 8 percent more width. The best thing for you, and making your potential purchase choices easier, is that you have no need for speed. A wide boat is a slow boat, but it won't hurt you as much as a guy who wants to burn up the track with a big motor. I'd look for a wider boat, even if it was only 14 foot. Wide is good for stability. richg99 [/QUOTE]
