I have not unfortunately, not even sure how the fishing is there to be honest with you.
also thanks everyone for the welcoming mats. Look forward to contributing to the forums for sure
Absolutely appreciate the advice guys. That's why I signed up here in the first place. To learn more about the whole shabang, not just fishing. I'll see where my boating purchases ends up in the future and let y'all know.
That's a beautiful boat for sure. I'll have to be on the look out. The goal is to find a jon boat that I can put a platform on and carpet it up and deck out. I'm sure I'd spend way less and have way less of a headache than if I chose to take on a restoration project. Appreciate the info and looking out, man.
Makes sense. I imagine disposing a 14-16" boat isnt a cake walk if you don't have a trailer to do it with. I'd also have to get a title for the trailer. It's a family member's so I'm not 100% sure if they have the paper work or not. I was more so attempting to get a little insight on what I'd be getting into with something like this. I guess it's back to the drawing board looking for 10ft jon boats haha
Relatively non-existent But I've got a lot of free time on my hand and I was just interested in what kind of money would go into something in such shape. It really is in rough condition but I didn't see any terrible cracks in the hull or anything. But then again, I'm not a boat expert by any means. I just can't see spending $1000-2500 for a small v-hull jon boat when there are used bass boats in the same ball park price. But I don't need a bass boat for little ponds in my area for a small weekday retreat. But I figured the boat would be pretty useless, but even if got the boat & trailer for $50, I figured the trailer was in decent enough condition to resale. hah
Also, any idea on what kind of boat it might be? Brand? etc?
Hello fellow anglers, I've been fishing most of my life but over the last year and a half I've jumped head first into bass fishing. I'm twenty one years of age, pretty alright bass angler given my limited experience, and I attend UNCW. Hope to learn more, make friends, and become a better angler.
So I've recently been in search for a small v-hull bass boat in no particular condition. Can't exactly afford to buy a new one and people want an arm and a leg for them. I did find one however and I'm interested in what kind of boat it might be and if it'd be worth fixing up and what kind of things would I have to look at fixing on it. So if I could get some feedback and maybe an idea of what I'd be getting into, that'd be great! Thanks, guys. A price point would be nice too haha
