I have a 2004 trophy 1802. Its a nice boat to own if you pull it to the lake for every trip out. I live in Pennsylvania and have no choice, Due to the fact that I fish Lake Wallenpaupack during the week. It has the 115 Salt 4 stroke on it and is great on fuel. I can push her up to about 30 mph on a good flat day. It could use some more storage on it but that seems like that case on every boat. I also have a 9.9 kicker on it and that moves it just fine. I have mine set up with 2 Big Jon caption packs, and a walker strike vision. This spring Iam gunna try to work out the planer board reels.
If ya can swing the 19-20 footer I would go with it , but the 1802 is still a great boat for the $. We only lost a few days fishing due to rough seas.
