Scored a heck of a deal on an Angler Qwest center consol pontoon last fall. Been setting it up for trolling. Finally almost there after new rod holders, lithium battery, 70lb motorguide (hand remote), and a new 75hp Mercury caught the 7 year warranty sale they are currently having. She's ready for the lake. Already had it out after testing the trolling motor.

After seeing your post I'm interested as well. Looks pretty nice for the price.
I’m installing mine this weekend.
My boat budget isn’t great right now. Thought I was sitting in the “ok aluminum boat” range, but looking through the classifieds shows me I’m closer to the “used canoe” range.
Seems like price and availability improves if I’m willing to drive east a ways, though. And I’m willing to spend a weekend to get the right boat.

My wife has the perennial boat bug. Her idea of what we need is a jet to run up hells canyon while I’d be happy with an aluminum prop boat to bass fish a few lakes and some flat water salmon and steelhead. We are both considering different jobs within the next few months and money towards a boat will almost certainly take precedence over a home upgrade

Her idea is a lot cooler.

Solar sails Mr Lamb.If only there were a history of small vessel navigation that could point us to some unpowered propulsion system.
Until the battery issue is worked out, then yeah - gasoline it is.
