Ran across what I think is an ok deal today on two bass boats:

1. A 2003 20' Stratos/Javelin (200 Javelin) with a 1996 200 Mercury OB (well maintained, good compression). The boat has GPS and fish finder and 82# trolling motor, jackplate and hotfoot. Has a couple rips in seats. Beautiful Stratos trailer. Asking 10K. Wife was awarded this boat in a divorce.

2. A 1996 20' Champion with a 2002 Mercury 225. Orginal carpet in boat, but no rips. Two fish finders and GPS and hotfoot. New Seats. Asking 11K.

Which is the better deal, or is either one a good deal. They seem fair priced to me, but I'm not an expert.

All input appreciated. Thanks,

Re: Which Boat?

in either one of them 75% of the value is in the motor. there is 6 years difference, and 25 hp. then you have to check the condition of the hulls.
