Boat Pricing

[jhaiken]

I am looking at buying a boat this season. I haven't done much shopping yet and am looking for some good advice.

Guess I'm looking for something in the 14' range with a 9.9. My lake is unlimited HP; but who needs more than a 9.9 and a trolling motor to get around?

What kind of prices am I looking at? Any suggestions on what make/models to look at?

I'm thinking my 5 going on 13 yr old daughter would love to get out on the water each and every saturday with dad; depending on her social schedule of course.

Just fishin for info. Thanks.

Look at this one. Open in the middle and looks safe for kids also.

That is a pretty cool looking boat, however, I think a 9.9 would have a little bit of difficulty getting this boat on plane. :D

jhaiken,

I sent you a pm about a boat I have for sale.

[jhaiken]

Wow, got the wife to bite tonight on a boat. She actually sounded interested in the idea. Not sure if she knows how fishing goes on the boat and may be thinking of sun bathing or something.

Anyway I'd like a nice deeper hulled aluminum boat since I fish primarily on flood control resevoirs where speed boats and their wakes are likely.

Any ideas on a nice steady in the water boat? Links would be nice.

Not Aluminum but should fit the bill for what you want.

Go wide. And about a 40hp. 16ft 48in bottom is a good size.

What state you in?
