Default finding the right boat

I have come to the conclusion that finding the right boat for a good price is not going to be easy.clean taken care of boats are few and fare between in my area.

Are you in NYC? Try upstate. Lake George, Western NY, 1000 islands, Finger lakes, and Oneida lake are full of clean well cared for, salt free boats.

I agree if you are in the city that the boats are not taken care of well. But when you spend all your time in traffic, cleaning and maintaining a boat seems trivial

I've found most people who can't find the right boat tend to be overly picky on top of overly cheap. Add those 2 together and the right boat will never exist.

How far you willing to go? Keep your eyes peeled more and more will be coming up for sale in the next couple months. What about the 271 in CNY that you were asking about in the thread in the Formula section?

Couple with a doable driving distance that is there and back in a day from you

http://lancaster.craigslist.org/boa/3591322422.html

Just missed a 29 Outlaw with steering and 454 mags for sub 30 on trailer in CNY

Talk to some of the dealers and shops up that way (performance marine etc) see if anyone is looking to move up or down outta something come spring. Things come off the market in the winter only to come back on in the spring
