[QUOTE="JL8Jeff, post: 464226, member: 12995"] I would check the weight on each closely. I looked at a G3 1656 CCJ a few years ago and it's a nice boat but with all the stuff it comes with, it was pretty heavy (I think 800+ lbs). I got lucky and found a used Lowe Roughneck 1652 jet tunnel that the owner had a prop motor on it for pretty cheap. My Lowe has the center console, floor and sides but it weighs around 425 compared to the G3. I sold the prop motor and found a 60/45 jet locally for the same price. The G3 has a better appearance and paint job but I couldn't justify the cost. You may want to also look at the SeaArk boats, they are tanks compared to the G3 and Lowe and the price reflects it. I would love to have a SeaArk 1660 jet tunnel but the chances of finding an inexpensive one of those is pretty slim. Are you definitely going with a new boat? Here's my Lowe. [/QUOTE]
