Re: Sold my boat!
"Looking at GW's rick?"
Well. I know they are one of the best built and safest boats out there. However, I can afford a newer boat, but not a newer boat and truck. My '04 Tundra will safely tow 6500# on a trailer with brakes, so that takes some of the boats out of the equation. Unfortunately, all the Grady's in the size I want. But, I had a really good year with our Key West. I have found several already that will work. Also Sea Hunt, Scout and Robalo all make a lighter weight composite hull. They are out there. I just have to find the right combination that will work for us. I have some financing already lined up, as I will only be financing 50% of the cost. I am looking at boats listed around $26 - 28K. I have had one dealer tell me Sea Hunt has some summer specials and I could get into a new boat. We will see. I am not about to sign a ten year note. I may start a new thread on my adventure in buying and what I find. I have friends with boats that I have had out often over the past year, so I have boats to get out and fish on. I won't rush this.
And how about yourself, Sam...what's up next for you??
