I love my willie Predator, very similar to the boat in the pic, but there's no way I'd want an aluminum boat in the South. It would be like sitting in a frying pan all day.

Could be. I take mine to eastern Washington in the summer and it will stay between 95 and 105. I can’t say I ever noticed it.
