IMHO the Columbia is the boat if you are looking for an open fishing forum in the aluminum boat realm. These boats are not for running rivers, but perfect for the Columbia, B10, and some ocean play. I guess if I am going to purchase a 25ft. barge I wouldn't be worrying about running shallow. I put up a post with some pics of a AW Columbia a while back...it's on my wish list!
