If I were to get a boat, what is something cheap that you would recommend?

Jesus since Telwater purchased them I'd buy a Savage over a Stacer/Quintrex.

But then for an extra $2k you can buy a brand new Haines Hunter Seawasp with trailer and 30 horses on the back. And I know what I'd buy, and it ain't alloy

Hey guys!

Thanks for the replies! I'd want a boat that is able to go fishing around Clifton Springs area. Nothing flash, but something that does the job. I've got no prior experience with boats but just recently thought I should consider them!

Thanks,
Angus
