Good to know. Thanks :cheers:
I was really excited when I bought it... but really disappointed after. It was a well made and pretty boat... but handled like a tank. Very sluggish and hard to plane. I had plenty of motor on it too. :dunno:

Why buy new when you can restore?

I just like being friends with people that have boats. All the fun but without the trouble.

And there's too many Matts floating around here, we're gonna need to differentiate.
Yeah, you're telling me!!! :lol:


My dad has had a Larson boat for 15 or 17 years now and its been great. His is 19' (I think), has a 305, in-board/out-board, and has an 8ft beam (the thing he REALLY likes about it). Its a "pleasure" boat and he skis behind it too. I don't know if they make fishing boats or not, and don't know where all they have dealers. Oh, I should point out though that his has Mercruiser (motor and outdrive). At some point, Larson went to Volvo and I don't know how well those worked. Just don't have any experience with them.

We used to have a boat like that and it was FUN. I loved our old larson and it was a champ! I think newer ones can be outfitted with trolling motors and livewells too.:thumbs:

Those runabouts are nice pleasure boats. The deep V makes for a great ride. Hard to bass fish with though... (my favorite water activity).

I could see Zem rocking one of these. Took me a while to find a red one.
