Hey guys, I am trying to help my dad out who just retired. He is looking for a smaller 17-18 foot range boat. He has been looking at several of the mid 2000's trackers (PT175) and other boats of similar style. I have been trying to get him to look at more glass boats and the 04 275 is one we just found.
I really dont want him to get into a boat that is prone to falling apart, or having major issues.
I do know most boats can have those issues if neglected.
Need any input from guys that have fished out of them, owned them etc.
Are they decently stable (better then aluminum??)
Any areas of concern
What pros and cons. IE rough ride, no storage ...etc. just what is your opinion of them?
I am well versed in the mechanical side of boat so no issue going through it on that side.
Appreciate any info, opinion's etc you guys have
Thanks
