    Thanks Russ for posting your experience. I agree, I think many boats have rot of some sort.

    What do you think of the Aluminum boats like StarCraft Islander? Not sure how they would handle the Erie chop.

    Default 22' Islander

    I owned a 22' Islander for many years. It had a small 4 cylinder, I/O, trim tabs. It was a breeze to tow and launch, handled the big waves good but you had to not beat yourself up. Aluminum sounds like it's gonna pop if you hit some of those 4 footers too hard. Trolled Lake Ontario for salmon a lot too, overall, a very good starter boat as well as a trailering boat, could probably pull it with a 2 wheel drive 1/2 ton easily, Mike
