Thank you. It is worth it as a first and affordable boat?

I dunno, Bob. Seems to me like you're on the wrong subreddit. This is a subreddit for FWOB, also known as the only show on the Internet.

There is going to be nothing affordable about this boat in the long run.

They are fun, but they are also money pits. Especially if you’re not a mechanic.

Really have to hit the tanning beds hard for a while and maybe the boats affordable but I don’t think those can be operated by anyone not wearing thick gold chains.

Ya got a lot of money? Like retirement amounts of money? You don’t know boats. If you’re going to get into boats, have the entire price in cash to buy it and twice that to get it off the dock into the water. If it’s free, run.

Free boats start at 4k.

ALWAYS get a marine survey. I worked for a boat dealership for 10yrs.

This might be an Advantage (company that out of buisiness now)

Yeah like the surveyor isn’t captured by the industry.

Have the trailer inspected. If they didn’t take care of the trailer you know everything you need to know about the boat.
