  • Looking for a boat for a friend. Any help?

    I have an older friend who has come to the realization that arthritis has brought his kayaking days to an end. He asked me to look for a good boat for he and his wife. I was hoping y'all could keep your eyes out for me and let me know if you see anything that fits these parameters.

    16 foot aluminum flatbottom (flat bow is ok, but semi-V would be better) a 14 would be too small, and an 18 too large for him to handle alone.
    25-40 horse motor
    Remote steer, key start, and tilt and trim a must
    Side console is fine, does not need center console
    Riveted is preferable due to weight, but welded is ok
    Tunnel would be fine, but not necessary

    He is willing to pay up to $3000 for the right boat, so he's not looking for a fixer upper. I know he can get a very good, well maintained used boat for this amount. If y'all could just keep your eyes peeled and let me know if you see a prospect, I'd appreciate it. I'm usually very good at finding boats for folks, but I'm going to be very busy these next few weeks and I thought asking y'all for a hand in this would be the smart thing to do. Thanks! - Sandy

      I might still be willing to let go of mine. I only use it a few times a year. I need to get the steering cleaned up because it sticks but otherwise she has been a great vessel.

        I thought you sold that boat! I'll shoot you a PM. - Sandy
