| 1750 Fishhawk is a tremendous value, and a versatile boat. Look hard for a good used one and you should easily stay under $15,000 and probably closer to $10K, even with a 4 stroke. These are awesome boats to fish out of, and while they're pretty rough in big water they can still generally take it. I wouldn't choose one if I made multiple trips to Mille Lacs every year, but it doesn't sound like that's your situation.
One thing to be concerned about is looking at older Rangers is that the old EFI engines are big time gas hogs. And Opti's are expensive. 681 with a 135 opti is a great boat, but I agree that it's difficult to find one in good shape for a good price. 690 with an Opti is a tough boat to find. Plus, those that have them have 150 horse engines rather than the 175 that they're rated for.
You should not have to spend more than $15,000 to get a great rig. | |
