Subject: RE: My First Boat - need advice

For 7k a guy can buy a very nice boat!You should be able to pick up a quality 16 ft with 40hp or so with some goodies!Just take your time and test drive the boats.Try different brands so you get a chance to feel how each handles in the conditions you will be using it in. This in my opinion is very important factor.When I upgraded from a 16ft lund to 19ft yarcraft I lost my easy handling in tight edges of rivers and bouncy off stumps in northern wisc lakes but gained the ability to go where ever I wanted on the bay of Gb and winnabago"in a hurry"!Good luck on your search!
