Sell me a boat
Was going to purchase a boat in FL, but did some research on it and the engine was blown.... good thing I did not buy that one  Well I am still looking. I am looking to spend under $12,000. I know this limits my options, but I figured I would ask here first and see if anyone had any leads. Looking for a CC and a decent engine (aka not blown and post 2000 hopefully). Want something in the 22-24 foot range. Have an Alumacraft 16' that I could throw in if traded + some cash. Thanks for the help.
And btw, thanks to all the guys that sent me magazines (all the preety boats got to me  )
Mike

my buddy is looking to sell a 25' luhrs and I've been meaning to post for him. Hull is from 1969 or around there (I can check). Not a center console, Engine is relatively recent, I think the last 7 years or so, but I would have to verify(couple hundred hours I think). Has a good trailer. It is a nice boat to fish out of, but life is making it so he has to sell. I think he is looking for $5000, but he is gonna have to sell it. If you want more info let me know.

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.

Mike, check craigslist. Lot's of boats going up for sale with the price of gas skyrocketing. And if you buy local, you can have it surveyed easy enough. Depending on how far you want to go from your home port, you would probably be fine in a 20' cc. There seems to be a pretty big difference in price between 20 and 22'.

Wait another year to get a boat. With the gas prices skyrocketing and the economy in the toilet many many people are going to be offloading their boats for pennies on the dollar in the next 12 months. Then you can steal one LEGALLY.

Buy the boat with the blown motor on the cheap (talk him down) and replace it with a new(er) motor with a warrenty....now you know what you have.

Thanks for all the advice. I may have to wait one more year but was just open to leads if the price was right.... I also would have to sell my Alumacraft, but I dont think that would be a problem. Moosh, PM sent as well.

Just wondering, have some boats been able to switch over to biodiesel?
