Once you find a boat that fits your needs, focus on it and look around. You should find a reasonably price boat in good shape.

good luck!

I've got my eye on three boats, two are in CT and one in NH. NADA is lower than than the list price on 2 out of 3 of the boats but not by much.

Now the question is when do I pull the trigger. The problem with buying a boat this time of year is lack of an in water test.

Anyone know the cost of a compression test? Most of the boats I'm looking at have 5.0L V8s.
