[QUOTE="riverbud55, post: 418168, member: 873"] Can say the Grizz has some good features like the track system and the 2 pre installed seat bases but lacks 2 more left and right of center on the rear bench seat for driving the boat, the deal breaker for me is the weight, my g3 1548's weight is 360lbs as compared to 587 lbs(+227) for the 1648 or 538 lbs(+178) for the 1448,, to me the tracker has a ridiculously heavy floor at 3/16'' or .190 that weighs 2.7 lb per sq ft, if I'm going to carry that much weight around would 10 times rather have it on the bottom of the boat where it would do some good, .125 hull would be nice, when I put the floor in my boat think it all weighed out at 18lbs, my floor is closed cell foam topped with a sheet of frp with a door mat on top of that, makes for a nice firm, quiet and cool floor to stand on,,, for me no need for inner sides just eats up room,, one other thing about having pre installed floor and sides makes it real hard to run your wiring, also my g3 was over $800 less then the griz 1448 [/QUOTE]
