New to boat owning here. I have been browsing here for quite some time and it seems as though there is a lot of info here.
I was just wondering if there is any information for the boat I have. An 80 Model bass boat by hustler. I have several fishing friends that I have boated with for some time that think it is in very good condition. Not to mention new carpet seats and gel coat. It is small however at 15'5" but suitable for me and my wife to fish out of in fair weather.
NADA does not list it and I was wondering what it may be actually worth. Boat looks used but not a lot. I am the 3rd owner. It has a 1980 90 HP inline 6 on it that has good compression. 120-123 on all cylinders. (I do have starting problems but will post in proper forum)
I can't seem to find any info on it anywhere and was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance
Tom

Indeed they were, in Bossier City off of East Texas highway. My father owned the company and my brothers and I worked there.

Re: New to Boating: Outlaw by Hustler bass boat

Alright, now I am extremely interested in this thread. A friend and I are working on his 1980 Hustler bass boat (not sure what model, bout 17 ft long) and we have found the transom is rotted so we are planning on taking the boat apart soon. Informaiton on how the boat was put together would be priceless. I plan on starting a resoration thread on the boat soon.
