[QUOTE="1cjk, post: 399840, member: 20204"] My wife and I have two small children and like to camp in our bumper pull travel trailer. We live in northwest panhandle of Florida and always camp at parks that have some kind of lake or river that is either fresh or saltwater. The other day we were fishing from the bank and my oldest one (8) said I wish we had a boat we could bring with us to fish from. That's all it took and the hunt was on. I have been trying to find a boat light enough to put on my ladder rack and rated for 4 people. I'm not looking for a serious bass/redfish rig just something we all could do a little light fishing from and putt around in. I really would like something aluminum and not plastic, fiberglass or inflatable. I did come across a Lowe utility 1457 that weighs 147 dry. The two biggest issues are the dry hull weight since I will have to put it on a ladder rack and person capacity. We also weight about 520 altogether. I was wanting to see if anybody knew of any other boats that would meet these requirements. Thanks [/QUOTE]
