Jassman, really those that are mentioned are all good it's just what YOU like. When I sold off the Concept I looked at them all and liked something in each boat. Personally I did find the gunwale height/ depth of the Contender and Yellowfin to be very shallow and me being tall and my wife liking to feel that she is down inside the boat we really liked the 38TE Fountain. The Fountain hull is efficiant and out of any 33+ foot boat the 38 Fountain is the best with MPG.
There are a lot of great choices out there right now and it is hard to pick.

That Sterling is a beautiful boat. I checked it out on the web site. Very pricey, but well built. Not to long in business, and dont know how many have been sold. Thanks Jeff

Thanks for the info. I love the diesels

, what a great set up. The North rip's look extremely stout. How are they priced and how is the quality in comparison to some of the others mentioned. Im looking for more fishing, like a boat like this. Thanks jeff

Re: CC Owners

Those Everglades are wicked nice boats. Really thoughtful, sturdy construction. Outstanding craftsmanship.
I was all over them at the '05 Miami Show . . . PRICEY but really really nice. Very unique.
If you are a fisherman, and driving an Everglades, you got it made.
