How about a 95 Procraft v180b with 150 Mariner, Tempest Prop, Jackplate, blinker trim, new 24 trolling motor, Lowrance 125 on bow, indash flasher, Eagle 420 on consel ? It a nice looking boat. I'm looking at a 2005 Stratos and might sell this one...

what price range are you looking at.

The wife says a brand new boat so i guess 25 to 30 thousand. I am not going to fight with her if she wants me to buy a brand new boat,then i will buy a brand new boat!!!!

Hope you find the right one for you and you're on the water soon !!

A new boat is nice but you can find a good used one for 1/4 the cost, Because they say the two happiest times with a boat is buying and then selling it. If you buy a good used one and then decide well fishing is just ok you will be better off. Just my 3 cents. Good luck in what ever you decide. And welcome.emoCool emoWelcome
