[QUOTE="russ010, post: 293344, member: 677"] it's all about what makes you happy. I started off with a 1236, but needed a little bigger boat when I had someone else start fishing with me, and I moved up to a 1546. That worked great for about 3 years, but I started fishing bigger waters and wanted a bit bigger boat. Now I've got an 1860 and I think this will be the last aluminum boat I buy. Get what you think you will be happy with. Personally, I would look at either a 1448 if you are considering a 1442. The extra width from a 36 to a 42 is good, but it's unbelievable what you get when you go from a 36 to a 46 or 48" floor. When you get above 42, alot of times you'll also get a bit wider beam and it's even that more stable and you can put as much deck in it as you want and not worry too much. [/QUOTE]
