The Tracker boat is a lighter boat. The hatches on the Trackers do have some flex, but the deck has a heavy core and are strong. I have owned 2 Tracker 18's and my parents own an 87 SIC 18. The mid 80's SIC hulls seem to be way stronger! No spider cracks hardly anywhere. The trade off is performance......the 87 SIC has sooo much weight, that the freeboard is way less than a Potter or Tracker 18 with a 140 Zuke. Trust me......
