I'm in the market for a casting platform. Been using a Yeti for a while and it's just time. I've always appreciated carbon parts for vehicles I've had, but generally would only purchase if there was SOME functionality.
I've been eyeing the Carbon Platforms from EvolutionPlatforms.com but it's hard to justify a grand for one. Just was curious what the consensus was on whether they are worth any extra money over aluminum. I figure a good quality aluminum platform is about $650 installed, and the Carbon platform is about $1100.
Are they just eye candy? I fish the lagoon with no trolling motor in a 17.8 Waterman, and while weight-saving is cool........I'm not sure I would see a difference.
