What is the difference between the 17 Maverick Master Angler and the 18 Redfisher?
o The Maverick Series more of a cutting edge on the bow, a little higher quality finish in some respects, and are a good all around boat. The Redfisher series is the “basic” flats boat that gets the job done and has been a workhorse of many a guide in south Florida throughout the early 90’s. Rick Murphy owned one for years, as did a few other top guides. o Both are great boats. The Redfisher is obviously bigger and will handle more horse power. I also believe the Redfisher’s are in general a faster hull (certainly on the more recent models). The 17 Master Angler does have the sharper entry and for a 17, rides and fishes like a much bigger boat. A nice thing on the 17 Master Angler is it will run nicely on smaller HP. o I like the 17 MA better, because of the storage, ride, and fuel economy with the small motor.
