Hi All<br /><br />I bought this fiberglass boat for cheap. It was a deal because it came with a strong 20 horse motor, trolling motor, fishfinder and all the other goodies. <br /><br />However the hull is junk. It is beatup, leaking, and rides badly. It attempted to do a Red October Crash Dive today following a couple of small waves at a slow speed. It is also a wet ride in any wind condition, but soaking in a quarter headwind.<br /><br />So I want to replace it with an aluminum hull, 14-15 feet long, semi deep V (20 Hp must drive it well), with the ability to have side console steering. It also needs to be inexpensive. I would like the hull to be bare becuase I could put all the good stuff from the other boat in to this boat.<br /><br />I live an Northern California, Sacramento. Where would you go to find a manufacturer that could help me? Where would you go for a used one? And yes my eyes are glued to ebay and the classifieds. The trick is finding an aluminum boat w/ nothing in it and no trailer.
