Hi everyone im new to boating and i am from europe and i am looking for boat in USA..Sorry for my bad english
I have a friend who found me a 2007 stingray 180rx with volvo 3.0 in mint condition with only 50 hours on it.What do you folks mean about this boat.Is it good boat for a beginner who will cruise on small lake and like to have some fun.Is 10000 US dollars a good price?

Jak sie masz? 10k will buy you a lot of a boat on used market. Depending where you are it might be a good price, especially if you know the boat history. Check and compare prices in your location and use NADA for average retail price.

That should be a nice boat for what you want to do. Check out craigslist to see what other comparable boats in your area are selling for.

Sounds like a great first boat to me. I have to ask, there are several people on here that are in europe and want to buy a boat in the US. Just curious, why is that - are the prices that much better? Way to save taxes? Do they not have the selection across the pond that we do? As I said, just curious.

The first thing is that prices are much better and the US dollar is pretty low compare to Euro currency and the taxes in my country are not to big and the choice here is terrible-small country with only two small lakes...In my country The taxes from Europe are 5% less than US.The Europe not have a good brands for bow riders or small cuddy cabin.And if i buy some boat from other state in Europe it will be bought from US and i will pay the same tax because the boat origin is from US..
