I agree great post.. I'm new to the site and new to boating without my father. For a while I had a 12ft flat bottom, it was good cause I could just put it in the back of my pickup. Way to tipy tho, just the other day I bought a 14ft alum v hull with a 40 hp merc, console driven with a wood platform on front and back. Its basically a miniature bass boat. I myself also mostly fish alone (no one ever wants to get up as early as I do) I'm also a night fishing fene.
I'm very nervous about getting the boat in and out by myself, especially if their is going to be people waiting on me. I want get out before the lakes get real busy and practice. Im good at driving trailers just never had to do the boat thing by myself.
