What is the difference between the 17 HPX and 18 HPX?
o The 17 V has a good ride but is a little tipsy while the 18 V’s ride is not as good as the 17 V. o The draft of the 18 V is actually less. The 18V is wider and more stable. o The 17 is very weight sensitive and storage could be an issue. You have to be well organized and keep everything put away or there will not be much room to move with 3 people. However, it’s great as far as poling, good ride. Its very quiet too. o The 18 V a great boat. You can still cross the bay in a chop. You can pole it all day and not get tired. The livewell works for bait and you can fish 3 out of it fine which I do a lot. o With two anglers and yourself on the 17, you’ll need to stay up on the poling platform all day just so that your anglers can begin to have enough room. The 17 is ideal for one on the bow and one on the poling platform. o I just purchased a new HPX 18 about three months ago. I owned an Action Craft Flatsmaster about 15 years ago and an 18 Egret Carbon Kevlar. I like the HPX 18 much bette
