Angler Boats

Post by Tailspotspotter »

My girlfriend has been wanting me to upgrade from my inshore Alumacraft 1544 w/ a 25hp Johnson to something that can hold at least four people comfortably. This is fine w/ me as long as I can keep me inshore boat. Well I have found an older 17-18 ft. cc , deep V w/ an older 90 yammy. The whole boat needs work, mainly some fiberglass work on the front of the hull. Can anyone tell me what they know about these boats?

I don't know anything about them personally. I have read loads of bad stuff about the boats and the companies lack of customer service on internet bulletin boards. Take it as you will. If you go to thehulltruth.net and do a search you will be reading for a good while.

I know it's early, but you have a Alumacraft now and you found a 17-18 ft what? Alumacraft?

I was working on the premise that it was an Angler, seeing as how the title of the post was "Angler Boats"

Some moderator you are. :sleep:

But ditto what ken said...I have read few bad reports about Anglers on FS Forum too....

But if you could look deep inside the bowels of most production boats you probably wouldn't like what you find.....

Take it out, kick the tires, check it over, look for any blemishes, patches or cracks.....
