Looking For a New Boat
« on: January 26, 2016, 07:16:21 AM »
I just sold my old boat so it is time to start looking for a new one.  I have been poking around the forum for some time now, but finally decided to make an account.  Below are some of the criteria I am looking for, let me know what you got.

Probably an open bow.  I am not opposed to a closed bow, but I am 6'7" and generally fit better in a open bow.

454 or other Chevy motor variant.  Would prefer recently rebuilt, or low hours on original.

Solid floor and clean interior.  Not looking for any sort of project, I put some money into the last boat and don't want to have to do that again.

Would prefer the new style interior with full motor hatch and bench seat with captains chairs.

Fresh pump with place diverter (manual or hydraulic)

That about covers it all, budget is around 11k with a little room to go up for the right boat. A test drive is a must for me, so please be ready to go to Elsinore or if the boat is out at the river I can meet you there.

Bump!!

I can go up to $14000 for the right boat, not looking to spend the entire budget but for the right boat I can.  There has to be something out there.

I'm getting ready to start pushing this since boating season is coming near. I'm 6'4" and this boat alway fit me fine. I will be going to Billy B's at the end of the month and the boat is at the river house if you want to put it on the river and run it.

Check Craig's list I/E for a Cole nighthawk.  My brother just finished one and its in killer shape with a brand new 468 BBC and Berk pump.    Really nice boat and seems to fit your criteria...
