Your gonna love that boat. Never been on the 15 but have fished out of a 17 and it is a sweet boat.

It looks cooler. :-D

I wanted a center console, as riding around with the tiller gets kind of old (for me anyway) when making long runs. The mitzi has a larger motor, livewell, poling platform, it's self bailing, and is a more comfortable ride in a little chop as compared to riding in the jon boat. Plus, the salt water was already working on the trailer pretty good.

I can't fish anywhere else than when I had the jon, but it's just a smoother ride getting there. :thumbup:

Plus , you'll see how much quieter it is on the water when drifting or on the trolling motor. Very little hull slap.
