Been bass fishing my entire life and have finally decided to buy a new bass boat. I originally was looking into Nitro's until i heard a lot of bad feedback about them. So i turned my sights to Ranger, Stratos, Skeeter and Of course Triton. After looking at all my options i believe i have settled on buying a Triton but I need help selecting the model I want. I want a 18 foot platform as i dont have room in my garage for anything larger. So the models im looking at are the 2012 Triton 18xs, 2012 Triton 18SE, and the 2012 Triton 18 Explorer. I am mainly using the boat to fish for fun but i do like to go to the local Bass tournaments weekly in summer.
These three boats seem to be similar just with different options available. When i buy the boat im looking to keep it for the next 10+ years so i need something that will last and im hoping a Triton boat will do just that.
