[QUOTE="ccarver80, post: 172222, member: 3400"] Good advice everyone! As for how much I'd use it it would be a lot! At least every other weekend and some odd ball weekend between there, .. that's why I don't think financing a boat is to horrible since it gets used alot between april-Sept. No different than a golf membership and those can run shorter seasons! Haha I'm still talking with said wife, ... if we can organize our finances I think I could be able to convince her to go up to about $200 a month on financing about right now we are paying 130 on a 6 year loan I think for my $8,500 boat...... I think I'm going to go aluminum with a deeper deadrise fiberglass would be nice but I think I'd be pushing our budget like I said I'll definitely check out that Walleye Central classifieds just to see what's out there [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] That's what I was mainly concerned out if it was just the size of my boat or the material of it being aluminum I think I will stick with aluminum just try to shoot for something just a little bit longer 17 and a half maybe even 18 foot then I can use a lighter engine like you said 115 - 150...
