Trackers are good all around fishing boats. Simple regular maintenance will keep them running for many years. Fred's Marine is a reliable dealer in my experience. Even though my boat is a small 14 ft. Lund, I get all of my parts and pieces from Fred's.
IMHO, aluminum hull boats in the 14 to 18 foot length range made by Tracker, Lund, Crestliner, SmokerCraft, Alumacraft, and many others are all pretty equal in their performance and abilities. What sets them apart is the quality of service the individual dealerships provide, and how the individual owner rigs them out and cares for them. I've seen almost brand new boats that look like they were towed out of a scrap yard, and 20 year old boats that were obviously well cared for. I've had my little Lund for 10 years now. Has a few dings that are inevitable, but it's well set up inside, reliable, no leaks, and takes me out and brings me back every time. I think you will get many good years and lots of enjoyment out of your new Tracker.
