I suggest making a private sale if you know what to look for. First, though, I would go to a boat show and find the model and make you think is best suited for you. Then work on finding a boat in the Want Ad or through a private owner. Most of the boats that people are getting rid of and are relatively new will have low hours and low to no damage on them. My uncle knows a ton about the world of cars/morotcycles/boats, and he got a '97 Sea Ray LAST YEAR with less than 300 hours on it. It had been sitting in a boat house for three years.

I know Shep Brown's does an In-Water sale where you can test drive the boats. If any other marinas do that I'd strongly recommend it.
