I thought I was just going to fish smaller waters, but....my love turned to the biger waters like Tonka, Mille Lacs, etc....Bigger water,bigger fish is my theory....

Just my 2 cents...Good Luck...It is a huge investment and if you can only afford $7K today, thn hat is all you can afford...If, If....You can manages $10K, you can get some great deals on 16ft Crestliners and others that are out there...

Lambeau: I would personally not go used unless you know the buyer or a friend knows the buyer. This way, you would know the boat has been taken care of...I bought my first boat 2 yrs ago. I bought a 16 ft Crestliner and it has served me well. Now, as everyone says, go as big as possible. I couldnot afforda 18-19 footer at the time, this was my first rig, so I wanted to learn all about boating, trailer, etc...Here is what I need in a boat today: More storage, I prefer the full windshield (some weather can be nasty), more horsepower, more room...Most important, comfort and safety for the family! Keep all of these factors in mind....
