Boats on Used Victoria and Other Areas

Wow, giving a hard time to K, for bashing guide boats, nothing to do with you lol.all I was saying is because it’s a guide boat doesn’t mean it’s been trashed,yes some guide boats are abused,but lots of them take very good care of their boats, the lively hood their families depends on those boats to take them out and back safe, wth complete strangers on board,out of a lot of place those guide boats head offshore every day and come back safe,I would trust those boats over any boats that sits in a yard for months on end not even being looked at.so all I am saying is because it’s an ex guide boat doesn’t mean it’s trash
 
Is it a red flag this hasn't sold yet?

Also, is it better to try and find a newer model that has composite stringers? Says the wood was replace 10 years ago, but stored inside out of the water.

Has anyone looked at this boat?
 
TUNA BOAT!!!
Family tuna boat? It has a pretty nice cabin, especially with the heater. It looks like it needs radar. There is no mention of autopilot, but there is a Garmin unit beside the Lowrance's. I'm not sure about the gas mileage being something to brag about; it sounds like regular big boat mileage. It sure seems priced right with that trailer, boat being rewired, and having thrusters.

put 20k into it and it is more than tuna ready. also a great family boat.

Not sure about this one, but definitely worth the look, if the work was done properly 10years ago, it should be solid, my wellcraft was redone, in 2014 and is rock solid, if it’s design similar to mine, there is access to check it out, lots of good reviews on those 20 step hull
 
Seems decently priced? Almost a month old listing ..

From the ad: MOTOR: YAMAHA F115 (2004) 1550 HOURSSource
**(Google search) The first-generation Yamaha F-Series models, manufactured between 2000-2005, are notorious for severe and unusually fast dry exhaust corrosion problems. The F225 models, in particular, experienced this issue after only 500-700 hours of use.**


Safe to say this would need a repower immediately/near future?

I asked him if 14k would be considered and I'd come for a sea trial, but he said no.

Those are very good hulls.
