I'm fixin' to buy my first boat but, I wanted some folks to steer me in the right direction before i made the purchase. I like to avoid paying stupid tax where possible. I'm looking for a welded aluminum boat I can take in rivers and smaller lakes. I went and looked a Waco 16 1/2 foot flat bottom yesterday that seemed to fit the bill. I can't find a lot of info on Waco (besides being out N. Little Rock). Here's the link - tell me what y'all think:

I don't know what questions to ask or what to look for to ensure it's not a lemon. And, if I don't get this boat, I'd appreciate some other things to consider when looking for others. Tell me the things you wish you'd known before buying your first boat.
Let me know if I've left any info out that would be helpful.
Thanks, Spencer.
