    Pee-hole question

    To buy or not to buy a boat without first testing it?

    I'm new to boating, looking to buy my first fishing boat. It seems that most smaller boats for sale in my area aren't in the water. Is it wise to buy a boat without trying it out on a lake first? I know this might not always be practical. More specifically, I looked at a 16' Sylvan with a...
