Best Boat?

[jkru]

I know this is subjective . I am relativly new to boats and I baugt a 18 foot 1998 bayliner (ok first boat), but know Im ready to commit I want a bow rider 20 foot or so top quality. I was looking at cobalt and searay. Does anyone have another recommendation? Which boat holds the best reputation for this size of boat?

Thanks

Re: Best Boat?

go with the volvo/penta outdrive if you want quality.

Cobalt for the usual I/O pleasure boat. For OB boats there are others such as Boston Whaler and Grady-White. Also there are premium ski boats such as Correct Craft and Mastercraft. The custom performance jobs like Hallett, Ultra, etc start at 21 or 22 foot.

Searay? Aren't they built on the same assembly line as the Bayliners?

I just got a MINT 1989 Four Winns 200 Horizon with a 5.8 in it. The boat has 190 hours on it. I love it! The best $6000 I ever spent8)
