Boat decision / opinions

[416wbymag]

All are decked out about the same and in the same shape. All with $4000 of each other.

I like them all for stability while fishing and on plane. I've narrowed it down to:

2017 basscat caracal mercury 225 w 370 hours

20210 skeeter fx21 250 yammie 4 stroke. 950 hours, 550+ are idle.

2018 ranger 520L pre bassPro mercury 225 280 hours.

Opinions?

Skeeters are awesome boats. I've never known a customer that had any complaints. Ranger-not so much!

For me it would be 2 stroke all the way!

Ease of maint? Or something else?

For me it would be 4-stroke all the way. Accidentally deleted previous post where I mistakenly said 2 stroke. I've owned a bunch of 2 strokes. Last 2 have been 4 stroke and I'll never go back.

I meant 4 stroke. Sorry.
