Nooooooo! might would keep it and add a new 210 Charger to the shop though. When open water fishing the bigger boat would be some better, but in a stump field or working shallow boat houses and such my old champ does as well as anything built. jmo For the record I fish out of buddies big Ranger some and the only time I like it at all is sitting dead still and fishing. Cant beat it while doing that. Hard to find one that does everything perfect I suppose.
