You can find MUCH better deals and a lot more boat if you look around a little. It took me 6 months before I finally bought a boat. I just didn't want to be stuck with something I wanted to sell in a year because it was too slow or underpowered with livewells full, gear etc, and one that would last me for quite a few years
In February I bought a 1 owner (old couple) 2002 Triton TR-19 with a 200HP Vmax, Humminbird depth/chart/side imaging, Brand New Minn-Kota Fortex, painted Aluminum wheels on the trailer, not a rip in any seat and not a stain or rip in any of the carpet. Boat looks brand new. $12,000. I fish 1-2 tournaments a month and fish 2 times a month on top of that. I really run the boat hard. Age really isnt an issue if it was well maintained and you stay on it.
