The time has come for me to get back into a boat. Went and looked at an 87 Thundercraft Citation and an 84 Larson Citation today. Both boats have the Mercruiser 2.5 and alpha drives. Both are in very similar shape. I haven't come up with the reason why the Larson is $1,100 more; especially with it being older than the Thundercraft. Are there any pros or cons between the two brands that I should know?
