Location: Minneapolis | I really like my Alumacraft Navigator 165 tiller. I got it used in 2004. It's a 2000 model year with a 2000 50 hp Merc 4-stroke. The entire package, including so-so-at-best electronics, was $7600. At the time I got it, a console model was for sale for about the same price. So you should be able to find one under $10k.
If you could find a Navigator 175, you'd have even more room and more ponies.
I like the narrow gunwales and the top-loading rod lockers. You can stand or sit on the rod lockers, and, most importantly, you can easily set your spare rods on top of them so they're in easy reach while fishing, and they're secure when traveling spot to spot. |
