Anyone selling a decent fishing power boat for under $30000. Plenty of deck space, mainly to be used for fishing off shore?

Show me what you got?

regards Don

Sales are going great guns atm. Boat yards cant get enough stock either.

Not so good as a buyer but great as a seller. Seems to be plenty of money around for some reason.

Have you been for a fang in a Trailcraft?. A mate of mines got one and every time I get back to land I feel an inch shorter due to the ride. There's plenty of excellent glass boats around these days ( and they don't corrode... :)

 I used to be as tall as you until I started going in aluminium boats 

 I reckon baron sportsmans are a great riding boat for their size. Back friendly.

 If you have back probs I would stay away from ally . I have a swift craft and I don't have any probs even tho my back is shot. Had 1 trip out on a ally a while back and suffers for days
