This allows access to areas that bigger rigs can't reach. This was probably because the lightweight rig does not force the stern to sink into the water as it drops off plane.Ī shallow draft is a major advantage of using a small aluminum bass like the 160.

Top speed was 31.5 on the radar gun - sufficient for a boat of this class and probably faster than most buyers are going to drive it. It definitely won't leave any V-6s in its wake.
