Spawnout,
Glad to hear your input about the lifetime wartranty on the seams. I just bought a 15' Smokercraft Tracer with a 25 4 stroke Yami back in March. One of the big selling points was the lifetime warranty against leakage on the seams. So it gives me peace of mind about their warranty hearing that you had no problems with that warranty. I love the boat! The tracer is built on the Lodge Hull with an open floor plan and a walk through windshield. It's a nice deep, wide stable boat, lots of room, had the dealer put on downrigger platforms andwired for running lights. I'd say for your money you'd be hard pressed to get a better boat value than a Smokercraft.
