Buying new was a joint decision. She selected color and boat layout (rear bench seat, front seat backrests). I selected top, engine & electronics.

My family loves the saltwater and until we can afford a 35' boat, trailering a cc it is.

1st trip yesterday early evening in upper buzzards bay, boy she is fast! Hopefully take her offshore Thursday.

First time you take her out make sure she gets hit with all the bow spray. Then she won't want to come out much anymore.
Worked for me !!!!

Good luck still.
Nice ride.

LOL. i thought if I bought a bare bones 40yr old center console she would never want to go out on it. Unfortunatley every weekend its now used as a pleasure craft, and she frequents classicseacraft.com. Last night I was headed out to draw blood and she says "can you not get the eel juice all over the boat this time, last week it smelled bad". I just gave her a dirty look.
