A friend of mine is looking at buying a Bayhawk 18' CC boat, tunnel, 90hp Johnson, Galvanized trailer, trolling motor, depth finder, etc..<br /><br />It is an 87model, original owner (elderly man who can no longer use it). They are asking $3500obo (probably will take about 3k).<br /><br />What should I watch out for on a boat like this? If I remember correctly, they are assembled similar to a ski-barge, with flimsy sides...But, the price is right and it's in 'good condition' for the age.<br /><br />Let me know if you know of any specifics to look out for in these boats.<br /><br />Thanks!<br />Shawn

I heard a rumor that they went out of business because they had hulls cracking. Any truth to this?

This was almost two years ago guys ;) <br /><br />He passed it up and ended up getting a Blue Wave. Sold it, and bought a kayak and put some cash in the bank, go figure!<br /><br />SQ
