[QUOTE="MrGiggles, post: 493587, member: 22613"] Well the G3 is a much heavier package and likely displaces a similar amount of water. Physics would show that it holds less weight as a result. If you tossed the bench seats in the Alumacraft, hung a 50 on the back, added full floors, a deck, and a livewell, the weight capacities would be similar. The G3 would be easier to fish out of, ride better, and plane a lot easier when loaded. Neither will fish three people very well, although few boats in that size class will. The G3 will be much easier to move to and fro in, no bench seats to step over. I think that to fish three people effectively, you need a 17+ foot boat with a very wide floor so you aren't dancing or stepping over each other all the time. [/QUOTE]
