good afternoon all and thanks for the ad.....
got a question for you all, have been a boat owner most of my adult life, owning all shapes and sizes of boats. but currently boatless. My wife and I want to get another boat, for fishing in the rivers and small lakes in Maryland. We really want to scale down and simplify our next purchase. thinking about 16 to 17 footer, basic jon with tiller, less is best this time around. My question to the group is jet or prop? I had a jet years ago, was a tracker pro-jet, was not a big fan of the inboard. So we want this next boat to be quiet and easy to maintain, with no concern at all about speed. The boat will be used in the upper potomac, so rocks are an issue but at that same time we also want the boat for the eastern shore ponds and rivers, so then we are dealing with weeds..... love to hear opinions...
