Anyone interest in selling a Bass Boat? I have been looking everywhere and can't find the right boat. Thanks.

There are lots of us looking to sell our boats.  What are you looking for?

I am looking for any make or model. I do no have a lot of money to spend. Thinking 8500 or less. Single or double axel trailers, something like a starter boat. Thanks.

You and me both, Good luck

One word:

Its actually a combination of 3 words, but i cleverly left out the spaces in between, therefor making it one word.

If they dont have what your looking for, no one does.

Regardless of boat brand or where you find it, be sure to check out the motor with a good mechanic.  For 8500 you are going to get something that is well used and out of warranty.  You can still find something decent, but be careful.  You might get a "steal of a deal" on a boat for 8500 only to have a powerhead go down - minimum cost of a remanufactured powerhead is 3500, and can be as much as 7000, so take that into consideration.

Be sure to:
-  Run a compression check
-  Run a leakdown test
-  Inspect lower unit fluid for water or metal shavings
-  Check motor mounts for excess play
-  Check water pressure
-  Check alternator/stator output
-  Check prop shaft

Good luck!!
