Default Aluminum Center Console

Howdy, I am looking at buying an 20' aluminum center console (fancy jon boat). I have narrowed it down to Duracraft, Alumacraft, and Crestliner. I would appreciate input from anyone who has experience with any of these three boats regarding ride, quality, and warranty.Thanks in advance for your information.Brian

Hi Brian .. welcome to iboatsI've got an '03 Lowe 1860 Roughneck that I mount either a 23hp vangaurd go-devil or a 25hp tiller on (marsh and river buggy) seemed it was my "best bang for my buck" choice within the mod-v's for my uses. really depends what ya want to spend on 'em is what I've seen .. they're all pretty basic straight forward crafts within respective clsses. Really comes down to how much you're willing to pay , what YOU like and how 'fancy' ya want it. Their ride is 'limited' to say the least.. light flat hulled boats ride on top of the water but the 20' CC class is going to afford a more stable ride all around. Nice on calm days and crazy on high choppy days.just my .02 worth
