Best Boat Manufacture
- ProGator is by far the best boat built bar none. They have been around a long time and to my knowledge they are the only manufacture to offer a 10 year stump warranty ontop of the lifetime warranty. I have the 200V with 225ProXS, She fly's and it is the softest riding boat I have ever been in. All of this coming from an X Ranger lover.

Chaparral
- Chaparral Boats are family friendly, jam packed with features and fun.

Bryant
- Bryant is a small manufacturer but they are the Lexus of the runabouts. I've had a Bryant 240 for almost 4 boating seasons and it has been the most reliable and easy to maintain boat I've ever had.
