G3 Angler V185F       By Steve Fennell
G3 AnglerAnother manufacturer to check this year is G3, a Lebanon, Missouri-based company offering a long line of quality-set fishing models, including the Angler V185F.

The 185 utilizes .100-gauge marine aluminum and G3’s exclusive GX2 double-plated V-Hull. In addition to providing strength, stability and reliability, this three-piece riveted hull comes with a 25-inch transom and full-length riveted keel for maximum durability in big water. Double riveting along the main transom seams provide more strength, while the available two-tone custom paint colour schemes with high quality fade-resistant urethane paint and custom graphics (baked on) adds beauty to strength.

The cockpit boasts 18-ounce marine-grade carpeting, six seat bases and three high-back fold-down fishing seats. For 2006, there’s a new slider on the passenger seat and other new features include a two-bank Dual Pro battery charger, hydraulic steering, a livewell divider and upgraded speakers with a cover for the Sony stereo.

Appointments continue with a deluxe rod management system, 24V trolling motor receptacle, fully loaded helm plus two aerated and lighted live wells featuring a remote drain and re-circulating pumps. In fact, the V185 F models feature an extra-large lighted 52-inch, 36-gallon aerated aft well. It also comes with a 500 GPH aerator pump.
