Boat And Trailer Only

[Andos]

Hi guys,

I have owned a few boats in the past and looking to purchase another boat, this time without a motor as I would like to put the motor I want on the boat. Glass or Aluminium, happy with both.

Some criteria

- has to be 5 meters plus and have a decent V to take outside

- decent gunwalls for safety

- not half cabin, happy with console, cuddy or centre cabin

- in fair nick, I can always restore part of the boat and post the progress on here

- no rot, I don't want to be replacing stringers, floors, or transoms

That's about it, I am pretty open with budget as I don't know what I am buying until I see it and if for a fair price then I will be happy.

Thanks in advance

Andy

it will be a bit hard to recommend anything with out a budget, do you want a 70k boat, a 10k boat etc etc at least give a ball park figure or maximum u want to spend...

Ok, sure, for hull and trailer only I'm looking at a max spend of $12,000. Hope that helps.

I know that this is over your budget, but Stacer make a 5.29m Northern Fisher Centre Console. These are a pretty basic centre console.

I have a friend considering one and he's lead me to believe that you can get the hull & alloy trailer for less than $16K brand new. Im not sure what fit out this would include (such as steering, nav lights and bilge pump etc etc)

cheers

Hi, you can actually get a NEW Stacer 529 Northern Fisher for a bit less than that and we sell alot of these and they are great boats with the EVO series 2 hull. They come STD with everything you will need to bolt an engine on the back. It includes console, steering system and fuel system.

If you can stretch your budget ofr $12K for a B/T contact me and I have one in stock, with a 90HP E-TEC and extras, but at least you can view one.

Cheers,

Huey.
