As a boat owner, this is very good advice. If buying used, buy on condition rather than age or hours. Don't skimp on power.Either new or used, boat shopping can be fun. My only advice is don’t settle. Know your budget and get the most bang for your buck. And the acronym is true. Break Out Another Thousand
My dad told me he was happy I got into the family tradition of boats, because i would never have money for drugs. He wasn’t wrong.buy your last boat first is what my dad always told me.
You should try the situation I have gotten myself into. I have a wife and two daughters who are the girliest of all the girly girls so they want a boat that we can take out in the summer and play, float and worship the sun. Then I have a son who's main purpose in life is to have a hook in the water. The ladies do not like to have fish flopping around on their sun deck. Then there is me who's main purpose in life is to lure innocent ducks to their doom deep in a marsh or flooded timber.Looks good!
