Good morning! Unfortunately, my beautiful 2000 Crownline 225BR was hit from behind while being trailered back from the lake. Boat is likely totaled as the outdrive aint lookin so good and the trailer is rather bent/beat up.
On the bright side, this gives me an opportunity to do some boat shopping. While I like the bow-rider, and my friends love sitting up front while cruising, I would also like something versatile. I welcome your thoughts on a boat that I can put on a trailer, has good seating without isolating the driver, can pull skiers/boarders/towables, and I can also bring to Lake Powell and sleep on it for a few days (i.e. berth, fridge, cooking, shower, head). I'd like to stay sub $30k if possible.
Thanks for your input!
