Just moved to Florida West Coast from CT. and looking to buy a cc/wac rig for about 5K. High and Dry's are tooooooooooooo expensive and wet slips I hear are a little iffy down here, so I'll need a rig with a trailer. I have a Jeep Wrangler (6 cylinder/standard and a mini van with a towing package, so I think I have to keep the total rig's weight at about 3500 lbs. I've read so mush "stuff" about engines(Opti, Ficht, Vro, 2/4 stroke etc.) that my head is spinning. Can any of you water splashers point me in the right direction? Maybe finding a 5k rig is a pipe dream!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Stalker

nightstalker,<br /><br />Don't want to squash your pipe dream, but, you're asking a lot for $5K.<br /><br />Can you find it-sure. However, it's going to be used and the horsepower low.<br /><br />Look for small CC's with moderate HP and move up from there.

nightstalker - Go to your local convenience store and pick up a copy of Boat Trader. It comes out weekly and should give you a feel of what $5k will bring.
