I just about have to say an aluminum 18' x 50" bottom would be ideal to move in shallow and go out 5 miles. It could take the big chop, but the ride in would be he.....

It would float shallow for poling, and be stable and plenty of romm. although noisier than glass.

Just ain't no do it all boat. Is there?

I think 4 boats could get me by.

Wevans that houseboat is some serious watercraft!!

1. 14-16 ft. Gheenoe for those low tide, winter days chasing redfish
2. 17-20 ft. flats boat
3. 18-24 ft. bay boat for hauling the family around
4. 25 ft. + offshore boat for grouper digging.

Of course you'll have to win the lottery to afford it.

I have the Gheenoe, man I can't get enough of fishing out of that thing. Hopefully I'll be adding an 18-20' bay boat pretty soon. Then all I'll need is a 31 Cape Horn and I'll be set for anything.
