While looking at new Baja's today, the wife says she would rather have another bow rider.
She liked the 212 & 232 Islanders. We were mainly looking at a new 2001 Hammer. The majority of the boats we've had were br's, but now we seldom have more than 4 onboard and I like the performance look. Her main thought was that it would be easier for me to get in and out of, which is probably true.
We mainly boat on the Mississippi River where rough water isn't a concern. We also boat on a lake in Texas about twice a year that is mostly calm. I know most have the larger closed boats, but anyone have any opinions between the two ? Advantages or disadvantages or have I answered my own question ?
