My only negative experience fishing from aluminum boats is trying to hold position in the wind while fishing for bass. I have fished from an 18' Tracker and an 18' high sided Crestliner and both required constant adjustment on the MinnKota even in slight breezes. I own a 21' glass bass boat and it handles wind and all but the larges wakeboard boat wakes just fine.
Weight is key though. If you have an awkward spot to store your boat then pull it off the hitch and just push it into position. My friend's 18' Crestliner is very simple to manuver manually.
