I still like the storage layout and deck arrangement on that rig. I had never even heard of polarcraft until you posted your boat a while back. I know I wish I had known about them a few years ago.
Thanks! Storage is awesome! What I like about the layout is that it's not one of those that have a huge front deck, and no back deck. It has a plenty big enough front deck, yet has a very spacious rear deck, along with a spacious lower cockpit area. VERY well designed!

I really like your boat. Nice choice. I owned a Polar Kraft for a few years and it never gave me a minutes trouble as I remember. When I had big fiberglass boats, I always had a smaller aluminum to fish some specific waters and the Polar Kraft was one of the ones I owned for a while. It was such a good dependable boat that when I replaced it, I gave it to my brother. I like the upgrades you have done.
I have had my eye on one of the Millennium seats. The one I have been looking at has a back to it. The older I get, I find that if I want to fish longer hours that I have to have something with a back to relieve lower back pain as the day wears on. I like the idea of having a seat with air circulation for hot days and I am looking for a deal on the Millennium....maybe Black Friday someone will run a good deal.
I don't see anything that I don't like about your boat. I fish Florida a lot of the year and you mainly see two engines down there - Yamaha and Suzuki. These are what the salt guys run a lot that need good MPG and they also need something that runs all day and gets them home. That white motor looks good. I would bet good money that you never have a bad motor problem.

Love that steering wheel. What brand is it and where can you get one?
14” Schmitt Torcello, black/chrome trim.
They are about $180. I got mine at Overtons, using a 30% off Overtons coupon I got via mail from them
Very nice wheel. Lund uses this exact model on their Pro V Bass models, and a couple fiberglass bass boat makers use them also.

Nice boat I have thoughts of putting a 140 Zuke on my RT188, weighs the same as my Rude 115....we'll see it would probably be a year or two down the road as we are in the process of moving.

Very Nice. I plan on adding a couple of the millennium seats to my tin rig soon. One like yours up front and a full seat for the back.
