I’ve been looking for a boat for Levi for a bit over a year. Last 7-8 MOs prett serious.
Like a 15-17 seafox flats, scout flats, renegade, old mako flats. Etc I’ve found 4 decent deals. But I’m always late to the game and they sell.
So the other day a old 16’ Sailfish flats came up. Perfect boat, motor and price. It was on FB marketplace. It was listed for 17 minutes. I pinged the guy He answered my questions and said I was #2 on the list It sold
Lol
17 minutes.
Used boat market is insane
(Mainly cause of the new boats $$ and waiting lists.)
Oh well I’ll keep trying

Dang that’s a quick mover. Sorry you missed out. My dad was looking for a good used small boat a couple years back and same thing happened to him. All the decent boats with a fair price went fast. He ended up getting a new 20 foot bulls bay with Yamaha 115.

I had a Key West before my Sailfish. I loved the quality per the dollar paid for that boat. It was tough to beat. Don't shy away from the old key west boats... I'm seriously considering buying an old 17' cape horn for smaller lakes. Those seem to have a great value per buck too.

Old KW Stealth would be awesome!
I def like them.
Looked at a 1994 165 hydra sport flats boat the other day
Really liked it. Needed lots of gel coat repair on the hull and the bilge smelled heavily of gas :-(
Def some nice older boats out there.
I’ll find the one that’s right for us soon
