A couple of closing thoughts: if money is an issue, anything that will run well with a 4 stroke of 30 hp or less will troll without adding $2000 and 100 pounds of trolling motor to the transom. A 4 stroke will also save lots in gas and run more quietly. The Hewscraft boats are great, as are Harbercraft. The Bayrunner BR-15 is another very high quality welded boat I have run and liked.
