I'm torn... I am buying a used boat and I'm stuck between the following:
2007 Stingray 180 w/ 3.0 Volvo with approx 15 hours on it for $9200
or
2006 Bayliner 185 w/ 3.0 Merc with 150 hours on it. The Bayliner shows more wear and tear, but has an upgraded prop and stereo. I have it down to $9500
I'm leaning towards the Stingray- it's newer, cleaner, have heard Volvo is better than Merc, and that Stingray is just a touch better than Bayliner. Any thoughts are much appreciated.
