The boat is a beast, but the fit and finish is sub par for a boat in that price range...Look at all the small details. I stepped on a hatch lid and heard fiberglass cracking due to the hatches being installed unlevel. Things like that work my nerves..

Haynie has a life time warranty on its hull ...and its custom so you put the hatches you want

Why do you think its the #1 guide boat on big lake??? Because its a fishing machine!! Guides change them out because they get great deals on Haynie guide program... its all about the warranty

And they can sale the boat and make money after using it for a year or two and keep same note on a brand new boat with new warranty

Black Jack is a great boat but not fishing friendly deck layout....

Do you have anything to support your statement that its the #1 guide boat on big lake? Do more guides use them than any other boat? Do the guides that use them rate them higher than other boats? Did you completely pull this out of your azz?

Yes i would say there are more Guides in Haynie boats than any other brand boat

The two biggest are HBG (runs most all Haynie) Big Lake Guide Service ( runs all Haynie & 1 L&B)

Most of the one or two boat services are running Haynies....So yes I i would say More Haynie Guide boats than any other one brand

And if you ever go on the water you would know this

Guess I don't follow the same guide boats you do. I've never noticed. Also, thanks for you personal survey of 2 guide services. W's personal survey proves it that haynies are the best. Everybody to buy one now.

And because kevin van damn has a nitro and fishes quantum that makes them the best too. Come on man! I think what you meant to say was that you have a haynie and you really like it. That's your personal preference. Thanks for making me still to your level again, no pun intended.

Personally, I would never buy a boat that was pre-owned by a guide....especially saltwater.

I think there's one or two around the Cocodrie area. Haven't seen them for myself just heard.

I just went through this same process and went with the blackjack. My kids would be falling out of that haynie.

None of you guys have a clue when you mention wood in boats...I would like to see first hand yalls experience with boats in general...Some of the best boats ever made consist of "MARINE GRADE WOOD" yall need to get off yalls kick of "doesnt have wood in it"...the only boats ive seen come apart were composite boats...and the ones with wood were from people not taking care of them and drilling holes and such causing them to rot prematurely

A truly honest opinion both are great boats...Bill makes great boats and besides what others say I dare anyone to say my Haynie doesnt have the fit and finish of another manufacture...thats just my 2c!

What were boats made of before metal and glass?

Pretty sure Columbus didn't sail the world in an wood free boat.

Hayine Boats
BUILT ONE AT A TIME
All Haynie's are built with no rot boat panel and a fiberglass stringer system. Each boat is built one at a time and all glass is hand laid. All boats are glassed inside and out and finished with gel coat even in the boxes and rig box.

No short cuts are taken when each boat is finished out and all center consoles are glassed in (no screws to come loose over time). Each console can be raised to your wants and needs from 2" to 4" or even more if you want. Once the flooring is installed each boat is filled front to rear by injection with close cell foam for flotation....

Built to last!

Every inch of the boat is fiber-glassed.

There is no exposed wood. The fiber-glassing extends the entire length of each boat.

The entire boat is injected with marine foam and all injection points sealed.
Foam injection is done for superior deck strength and floatation.

I think both are great boats. The Haynie is a pure fishing boat. The blackjack is more comfortable and more aesthetically pleasing. It's like comparing going fishing in Venice to Grand Isle with the Haynie being Venice. The fishing is great in both just one is prettier and more tourist friendly then the other

About the wood thing there are 40-year-old Boston Whalers still out there fishing. As long as the fiberglass work is done well you have nothing to worry about with wood in boats
