boat crownline used
Buying a boat dateline 3/16/98 buying a new boat, four words that can make the heart best faster with anticipation, excitement - and dread! the fun part is the excitement of a new toy to play with, the knowledge that you.
Just have to catch more fish with a new boat, thinking about how fast you can go now and the feeling others are looking at you and wishing they had a new boat, the bad part is the cost of a new bass boat, trying to decide exactly what you want and can afford, trying to pick the best boat from the huge numbers of good boats available, and worrying about getting the best deal possible, i bought a new boat last week and experienced all those feelings.
- and more, and i am sure there will be some new ones to Cheap Boats
jump in this weekend when i get to try it out for the first time, in a club tournament at eufaula, i hope the floating logs are gone by then and i will try not to worry if i get a grain of sand in the boat from my shoes, but i am sure i will be a little more careful than i was with my ten year old stratos 181 this one replaces, about a month ago i got the urge for a new boat and started checking around.
I made up my mind to find a late model used boat since new boats lose almost one fourth of their selling Cheap Boats
price the first year, i was also determined to stick with a boat around 18 feet long with a 150 hp motor since that was what i had, it was stable enough for the type fishing i do, and i did not want a heavier boat to pull, i was not going to get a bigger boat with a bigger motor, i looked in the boat trader magazine and saw many boats a year or two old for a fair.
Price, i spent hours looking at them, marked the ones i liked and checked back over them time after time, of course every one had some problem - it was not exactly what i wanted, it was a little Cheap Boats
older than my range or i.
Worried about the shape it was in, to help me decide i made a checklist to mark off everything i wanted, my old stratos needed new steering cables so i took it to a dealer to have them replaced, used crownline boat while there i decided to look at his new boats, of all the models in stock, i liked a 19 ft 3 inch stratos 295 best, the layout was just what i wanted and there.
Was a dealer rebate on both boat and motor, when i talked to a salesman he did a good job - showed me what a Cheap Boats
good deal the boat was and how that boat that was bigger than what i wanted, with a 200 hp motor, again bigger than what i wanted, was just the outfit that i wanted, and he showed me i could get it for less than a new 18 foot model because of the rebates, i used all my will power and left.
Without giving him a deposit, i wanted to sleep on it, the next morning he called me at work and asked if he could order it for me, it would take about three weeks to get it in and i would have it in time for the one big tournament i fish each year, Cheap Boats
the georgia bass chapter federation top six, i almost said yes but i.
Wanted to check with a couple of other dealers before making a commitment, the first stratos dealer i called had just what i wanted and it was in stock, i could pick it up that day, but the price he quoted on the phone was almost $2000 more, the second dealer i called had a new 97 in stock and said he had a good deal on it, i drove over that afternoon and looked it over, sure enough, it was exactly like the 98 model but $1000 less, i bought it on the spot, if you want a new boat, make up your mind exactly.
What you want, make a checklist so you are sure you get everything on it you desire, then do like me and go out and buy something different! have you ever bought a boat? what are your experiences? tell me about it, do you have some fishing stories related to the tricks you use? if so, you can also post information about it for others on my message board - you must register to post but can read the board as a guest, also, if you have a story about.
