Re: Bass Boat

Also, imo if I was going to build a crazy go fast pro-style bass boat I would go for the Mangusta 20, and just modify the shear to a traditional bass boat deck design. If I was looking for economy (and slow your son down :D) I’d lean more towards the GV15/17 or PH16/18. Both styles have a wider bea...

Re: Bass Boat

However, I am not that knowledgeable about boats so I need a lot of help please! :) I looked at the Phantom boats and indeed some folks have made a bass platform on it. I also saw that some bass boats have been made on the GV15. From my limited p...
