I really want to thank the people for getting this website going. Great job!
I am wanting to know some pros and cons about double end troll boats vs the more square or semi rounded stern boats.
Thanks, Aaron.
I know double enders are less prone to broaching in following seas since they have less stern buoyancy than a square sterned boat.
The double enders I've seen have much less space in the troll pit and much less space for gear but I bet it's easier to land fish in a double ender.

Varies i guess.
i assume we are talking about wood vessels, Having fished on on both each have their own qualities.
Square more room but, you walk back and forth all day and can't see ahead from the steering wheel in the center of the pit.
double ender, sea worthy as helll. ya watch others get their asses kicked and pushed all over while the big roller slide past ya. however there is generally less room in the wheel house and focsle.
all opinions.
