roffey sadly almost nobody selling open bow boats auctally writes open bow in their ad so the best way I've found is to search manufacturers
My advice having just added another boat to the fleet this summer is that the truly good boats/good deals sell the same day. There's a hundred other guys out there in your area doing just what you are doing. Be ready with the money and to drop whatever you are doing and be ready to make the offer. Locally for me, CL is seemingly the only means of advertising private parties use anymore. Eight out of ten of them will lie to your face or misrepresent when you are looking at the boat and you start to realize why people buy new then suddenly THE ONE shows up and you make the deal and your faith is restore again. It was this bad for me for three and four year old boats with barely any hours on them, I can only imagine buying something ten or twelve years old.
My favorite trick sellers used is the boat will have say 30 hours on it and maybe 3 years old so you expect the boat to be in near perfect shape and they send you pics confirming the boat is perfect only to then discover those pics were the pics of when the boat was new and in reality they hit every dock they saw in the three years they owned it.
