    Anyone have the 619VS boat

    I am looking for some reviews on this boat. I am looking to purchase a new boat and have been looking at the Skeeter 1900WX as well.

    Lots of 620s used up on Erie. My buddy is on his 3rd one, and I've fished in the 620 a lot. Tremendous boat for fishing smallmouth and walleye. Extremely comfortable ride in 2-3 footers, and no need to back down from 5-6 footers.

    The 619 would seem to be a great big water boat as well, but it's no secret on big water that a foot of length can make a lot of difference.

    Fishing inland lakes, I'm not wild about these boats. They draw too much water, are too high-sided, and don't have enough deck space to compete favorably with regular bass rigs for largemouth fishing. It can be done, don't get me wrong, but not nearly as effectively.

    My $.02.

    I have an 07 620 and my brother has a 619, as well as many close friends. We use them mostly for musky fishing. We fish many lakes including northern Wisconsin, Minnesota and Lake o the Woods, Ont. These boats have proven themselves every time out. These boats make the larger waters we fish fishable in even the heaviest winds. I cannot speak on the Skeeter but I am very happy with the Ranger. I came off of a 18' - 6" Champion bass boat that I loved for the rough water ride and casting platforms. The 620 is a completely different ride as it plows it's way through waves instead of cutting through them like the Champion did. Both are great rides, but they are different.

    If interested, be sure to check out the newer used 619s and a few Skeeters as well on https://www.walleyecentral.com...s.jsp
    Good luck shopping!
