Fishin farmgirl here is a couple of model you might want to look for I have friends that fish the s/s almost every day and they put their boats to the test one of them is a 16ft lund open with a 30h/p honda 4 stroke and he can fish from point Gibson to dalco then back home to fox iland and still have plenty of feul left. the other model you might want to look at is a smoker craft !4,15ft open with a 25 or 30 h/p honda 4 stroke.But both of these boat are the tiller type with windshield and no place to get out of the weather.hope this helps.I will be out tonight to try my luck!!
