Has anyone seen or fished out of 1?

I was looking at them last year. I haven't fished from one, but I looked at one at a dealer. It was the center console design. Lots of room! The thing I didn't like, was that the console set way too far to the back of the boat. Also, it has a pretty good sized rear deck which I didn't like, but that was due to the huge livewell. Definitely a workable catfish boat, just not what I was looking for. You can get the 2096 without the rear deck or livewell and it really opens up the floor plan. I was quoted boat and trailer for $9500 for the stripped down model. Add a 90 hp outboard and it goes up about 5 or 6 grand. You can get the Outlander model for right around 20 with a 115. The Outlander is what I was really interested in. Take a good look at them. I think I might like the Outlander better than the Sea Ark Pro Cat.

I got the brochures from Polar kraft and not very user friendly on the info I was looking for. I did compare the 2009 to the 2010 model on line. The 2010 is .125 aluminum like the sea ark with same warranty. The 2009, you could get the 65gal livewell that I want but doesen't say on the 2010, I'm sure it's available. I want the larger deck in the back for spider riggin crappie. Prices I have seen with a 140hp is considerably cheaper than sea ark. I believe a 150hp can be put on if you upgrade the steering. I just have to move my ass and see a dealer and get the real lowdown. The ole boat I have is getting rough, rode hard and put up wet for yrs but a bunch of pigs have hit the deck.
