beware the used boats ! minn. winters on a fiberglass hull left outside , you might as well flush your money down the old porcilen reciptical ! although you can't see the micro cracks , they are there ! i've made the mistake . countless hours i spent making repairs , i should have had someone who knows what to look for with me when i bought it . the boat looked fine when i purchaced it , but once in the water , well it took a few days to let it drain out enough to start ripping it apart to repair all the damage and rot ! a nightmare !
i kept the boat for two years before cutting my losses and selling it for a quarter of what i put into it . ( not including my time spent , when i could have been fishing ) .
kinda like an old junker car , most of them empty your wallet at the end of the week , unless you got it from grandma . she treated it like gold and kept it in the garage . just a thought before you buy .
