kevin85193 Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 Hey there, Well, I always wanted a boat, and from last fishing season... I wanted one more and more. I recently found this free boat http://newjersey.craigslist.org/boa/138982919.html on craigslist. Now, I don't know much about boats. I was wondering what trailer i could get to pull that. I e-mailed the lady, but she didn't have much information on a trailer for it. Any help would be appreciated. kevin Quote
Team_Dougherty Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 Kevin, This is my opinion. Please do not be insulted. Free is not always a good thing. By the time you fix that boat get a motor and trailer for it. I do not think it would make a good fishing boat. There is not alot of open space in the boat between the motor well and helm. A trailer will cost at least $350.00 and motor at least $500.00 for a used one. It looks like it needs controls, seats and who knows what else. You could put a couple of grand in to just the boat before it is even ready for the water let alone fish. Save your money and get a good used boat. $4k IS a great deal for this one. http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1140114113/0#0 it is in FL though Good luck Paul Quote
Team_Dougherty Posted March 5, 2006 Posted March 5, 2006 BassBird, Sorry for the confusion. That is not my boat. It is one I just found to use as an example. To show what could be had for a good deal. It belongs to TDG. Paul Quote
Super User cart7t Posted March 6, 2006 Super User Posted March 6, 2006 Don't buy that POS boat. Every penny you spend on it will be a waste. The person offering that for free is probably too lazy to dig a hole deep enough to bury it because that's about all it's worth. Quote
