my wife bought me a 2014 proteam 175 in 2015. it was a clearance item, around June, in 2015. got about 1k or so off dealer price around 14,900 if i remember. i got the basic package with a lowrance elite 4" depth finder and a 12v 55 minkota, 60hp 4 stroke mercury. probably the smoothest riding aluminum ive had and by myself i can run between 38 and 40 mph. wind can be a problem around 10mph or so. ive had no problems with the 55 trolling motor on KY lake. there were some bad reviews on trackers hull problems but i havent had any problems but i dont take stupid chances either. i can fish all day long in 18" of water. that diamond coat finish is slicker than owl poop and one word of advise, DO NOT UNHOOK IT UNTIL IT IS OVER WATER , or you will be chasing it down the ramp.
one upgrade that i wish i had gotten is a terrova with gps. that spotlock feature would come in very handy.
a couple guys at work bought the new G3 and xpress boats. with a 90hp on the G3 he said he can run 41 mph wide open which is not much more than my 60 hp but i get a lot more mileage per tank than he does. both of those looks to be better built than the trackers but they were like $23k for either, but i believe he upgraded to the 24v ulterra and better deph finders.
if you are around new johnsonville side of KY lake you can go out with me and drive mine if you like.
