i need a bigger boat!

[brenno360]

hi everyone, well heres the situtation i have recently started going offshore in my 3.9m tinny, n it was ok the first few time but the swell n chopp picked up really bad last time we were out, needless to say big seas small boat doesnt really mix, so im after a bigger bout, we have around 20k to spend, mainly looking for a glass boat with a newer outboard on the back so has anyone got any sugestion on a good boat between 17ft-20ft?

cheers brenno

Mate look at the first few pages of the boat chat forum. There have been heaps of topics regarding boats around that price lately.

Here is a good one

I just bought a boat. After looking round there seems to be plenty of Yalta, Rum Runners, and Cruise Craft's around in your price range. Look through Boat Point, Ebay etc, plenty of good boats at good prices at the moment.

No worries Brenno..

I can't argue because that is what I am doing also. Just bought myself a V213C Haines.
