SF vs MA

[Tarpun]

The most noticable difference when in use is the security of the added freeboard. I'm 5'11" and the gunnel hits me mid-thigh . I think the extra 5-6" inches the cap adds makes it a little dryer. Also the wider cap makes a great place to sit while fishing. The MA lacks the foredeck storage of the SF but a lot of the MA's made up for that with the optional large console. I can't see any difference in construction between the two models. The greater free board and the recessed hand rails up front add security when fishing in a slop.
