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?
