I'm looking for a long 18ft or short 20ft. dual console, prefer 1988 to 1997 yrs due to budget of 12000 or less. must fish and ride 4 people

I was wondering why bass boats rated for up to 6 people only have seating for 3 while on the plane. can some dual consoles ride a person on the lockable rod lockers that have open space between the lockers? any ideas on this?

thanks for your time.
For use on Winnipesaukee or somewhere else?

If for use on Winnipesaukee, you really should consider a Center Console, MUCH better ride, more overall utility and more room for the 4 of you. Bass boats are very purpose built boats and not really best suited for Winnipesaukee or families of 4.

If you are 100% committed to a Bass Boat, I will let others chime in on suggestions. But if you have not taken a ride in and looked over a Center Console, you are short changing yourself and your family. Oh, and they might even be a better deal price wise,,,
