Uh, my Lake and Bay ROCKS!!!! I'm in love. It floats plenty shallow enough for getting to the fish we want. It won't get up extremely shallow, but that's to be expected from a speed boat. Other than that, I don't have a negative thing to say about the boat. Dry, fast, shallow draft..... did I mention it was fast? Can't wait for the new Evinrude 300 HO to come out. That will be on the back for sure and I'll really be moving along. As if it wasn't fast enough already.
