Default V14 -15 Sc

Hi Guy's new here, Looking at a Tracker V14 or 15 with SC. Any thoughts on them? I need a small boat so I can store it in the back of my garage when not in use. I'm going to use for fishing and a little boat riding. Any problems with them? Thanks Don

Default Re: V14 -15 Sc

i have a V16 SC. my wife hates the side console and wanted a windscreen but i vetoed her as i know she is only going to go out once in a great while and the walktrhough console would be a pain for me. i have had it for a season of fishing now i bought it at the begining of spring this year its a 2009. they have a lot of nice features. mine has a 4 stroke 50hp motor and its plenty of power to get up on plane reasonably well and scoot along at around 28mph. thats plenty fast enough for me in a boat, i always worry about hitting lost skiers or floating logs. any faster and i would prolly not ride at that speed anyway. mostly i lake fish in wisconsin and its plenty fast enough to go anywhere on any of the inland lakes in a reasonable bit of time.

im not a tournament fisher so i dont need that scoot and fish speed of a bass boat.

the other consideration is fishing alone or with friends. with one other person my 16 is just about right 3 and it starts to get cramped 4 people and its right unpleasant. i try to keep it to just two me and a friend at most.
