[QUOTE="richg99, post: 197059, member: 4376"] All good answers so far. I've never had a flat bottom tinny, but I have owned a number of Carolina Skiffs, which are flat-bottomed fiberglass boats. I still own a 16 ft Carolina Skiff at another location. I agree that the flat bottom makes them real skinny, but it also can bang the riders up when the waves get too big. My present tinny - 160W Lowe semi-V-- handles waves way better than the flat-bottomed CS's do. I like it a lot. I will have to decide, in a few years, which of the two boats I will keep as my ONLY boat. If I had to answer that question right now....I'd likely keep the Semi-V tinny. regards, Rich [/QUOTE]
