My first post to this site: I would appreciate input/opinions of Grady Fisherman 222 vs Adventure, the 20'. I have not owned a Grady White but after much consideration reviewing quality and layout of many manufacturers, the 222 seems a very good fit for me. Main use will be fishing the Great Lakes, mainly Lk Michigan for Salmon/seelhead and Lake Erie walleye. Another key consideration is I will be trailering almost each time used from central michigan. Travel will be aprox 160 miles to Lk Mi and aprox 50 miles to Lk Erie. I really like the layout of the 222, the open transom area plus the head in the console. The 20' benefit may be lighter and easier to trailer but maybe not as seaworthy. My tow vehical can handle either, a full size gm pickup.
I dont see hardly any info regarding the 222 here. Are they very popular? The little I have seen of them leads me to think would be very good for me. I would really appreciate input.
My last boat was a mako 191 center consol which I liked much but I think the extra size I am considering with Grady would be a real benefit in increased sea worthiness even though added weight will increase fuel consumption for both towing and trolling.
