I just ran into a company that is willing to build a 2072 boat built to my specs (no bass fishing deck in back) that can do the boat in poly or aluminum. They say the poly bottom is as tough as aluminum. Does anyone here have experience with a poly boat? I think a lot of drift boats are built like this and this company does make drift boats. I dont know how repairable they are if you hit something hard? Picture is example of one of the smaller versions of what I want. They say the aluminum and poly boats are identical. I have not found a boat manufacturer that is willing to build a stern like that for a reasonable amount of money (as in, North West boats are up to $80k).
