Hey guys new here, but not new to boating by any means haha, just new to the non commercial side of it. I am planning on buying myself a "new" boat this year for just playing with at the lakes and just towing a tube, and maybe some wake boarding but not much if it dose happen. I am looking at a few different boats that are in my price.
2015 Bayliner 175 with the 3.0 (brand new) 18.000
2007 Reinell 185 BR Volvo 4.3 (boats really clean almost looks brand new) 14,000
2000 Chaparral 196ssi Volvo 5.0 (super clean boat by pics) 10,000
2005 Moomba outback 188 hours and clean for 16,500 but I have a feeling it will be sold soon haha
there is also a few others I was looking at, I know these are all way different boats in drivetrain and year, but they all seem to be nice boat. I am just kind of worried the 4 banger will be under powered, but would be nice to have brand new and all the warranties. So to cut it short primary use of the boat will be fresh water towing a tube 1-3 person tube (at biggest) with maybe 3 to 4 people in the boat, with me being 240 and everyone else being under 160. only going to be used in the summer months mostly and stored inside in the off months. Thank you guys!
