Hello,

I am brand new to the forum and getting ready to purchase my first boat in years. Spring Time is in the air!!

I know very little about the boats now a days but researching like crazy and learning a lot quickly. I have a question about 3 different types of boats that I am looking at and would love your input on pros and cons about each boat if possible.

The boats I am looking at are 2001-2004 Sea Rays, Stingrays and Tahoes.

I really like the look of the Tahoe and Stingray but I am unsure of their realiabilty. Are these boats dependable? Does the Tahoe have many issues? I saw where people posted that the Tahoe leaked or had some issues. The Tahoes in my area are cheaper and that worries me a little.

I know Sea Ray has been around for a long time and I think they are dependable but cost a little more. So can I trust Stingray or Tahoe at a lower price?

Many Thanks for your advice and I can not wait to get the new boat that we decide on into the water.

-Jeff

You might check used Four Winns too... All brands/makes/models are DIRT cheap right now!!! It's a buyer's market.

In that year range, power plant maintenance is probably more important than hull quality differences.
