Looking for boat reccomendation

[rbc]

I am interested in finding a 15 foot boat that I can use in shallow waters (keys) for both fishing and exploring. A 15 footer is all I need. An older used model, plus I want to cut holes in the bottom and install viewing windows. Can anybody reccomend a boat that would fit those needs? does anybody have experience installing view windows in bottom of power boat?

thanks
Randy

Randy:
Welcome! I would consider an older Whaler "15". They made a very good 15 ft. model. I would not recommend cuting holes in a perfectly good hull.

Excuse me for questioning your intentions, but cutting big holes in a boat bottom better be done right. If you will use it in shallows, what could you see in the limited view you will get of bottom that cant be seen over the side? You will be the last owner the boat ever has, so plan the boat to be worthless.

Jeeze

if you're gonna cut holes in the bottom, it better be a Whaler and don't forget your life vests
