seriously no one can actually tell you what would be a good first boat for you..
What you have to do is sit down and work out what style of angling you wish to do
Also think about what sort of style boat you want fibreglass aliminum
do you wish it to be open boat,centre console, cuddy,half cabin
consider how much freeboard you wish to have
consider how much beam you want in a boat
Also what you are going tow the boat with
look at the end of the day your the one who has to be happy with the boat you purchased
other things to worry about is maintanence on the boat and trailer
anyway the list can go on but seriously work out what style of fishing you want to do first
but i myself do recommend if you have not been around boats and have had no experience around boats i would suggest you start of with a small boat
cheers
