@Opie recommended. Alumicraft 185 was actually gonna be my first guess but the gunnels looked short.

I've got a Tracker 165 or some shit and a 22 ft TMC pontoon. Looking to upgrade the fishing boat one of these year and am seriously considering the Alumicraft 185 or bigger. How do like yours? Electronics?

I have a garmin gps/chart plotter/fish finder with side view. Not a huge fan, I’ll probably replace it at some point. I need the saltwater maps and garmin is proprietary and only allows their chips at $400. When everyone else is $150. Bought the boat used, and it came with it.

Now that we have a gear thread I’ll have to take some more pics of some of my crap next time I’m out.

It’s nothing fancy, but I enjoy the hell out of it.

Nice! I went back and forth deciding between side or dual console. I love the extra room that you have, but ultimately didn’t want the wet (er) ride when I fish costal water.

That's part of why I haven't pulled the trigger on fishing rig up grade. Can't make up my mind on walk through or console!!!

That’s awesome, I’d love to have a place with a dock someday. Rented a house on a tiny lake for a few years, nothing better than being able to walk out the back door and wet a line.
