Alexis,

I have fished a bunch on the mitzi 15 and 17 tunnel hull. For the money these boats are great, no bells and whistles just a fiberglass hull that will go really skinny. The only negative things I have seen are the hull slap, makes a little too much noise when poling on a breezy day, they ride fairly wet on choppy days, and they rock easily for bigger people. Where do you plan on using this boat?

sounds like you will really need to test the boat and its fishability when you get it ... it will be tough and a big sacrafice for me ... but i would be willing to help you out and get on the bow and cast to some fish in the french antillas .... Very Happy a Cool
