Should I buy this boat

dustinhl · 04-27-10, 02:23 PM

Ok so I am new to bass boats (always have fished in ponds/with other people) but have been eyeing bass trackers and found a relative selling a 2006 190tx bass boat. The motor has less than 20 hours of runtime on it. He has added a lowrance 322 color sonar, gps, and navionics chip to the bow. It has a 24 volt trolling motor, plug in batter charger, and the charger that charges the trolling batteries while running. Also has a cover and he has followed the breakin on the motor.

He is wanting 14k for this boat and new I think it would probably be around 19k or so. I am just wondering if this seems like a good deal.

11 views and no posts, come on i need some info here. I mean i feel the boat itself is maybe 1k overpriced but that sonar/gps is like 700 and that chip is 200 so thats why I am thinking its not necessarily a crazy deal but for the care its had and the low hours I felt like it was reasonable just wanted some other opinions to compare.

Are you going to finance it? If so go to the financial lender and see what they say it's worth.
In reality it's only worth what you can get it for and are willing to pay. That is the big Aluminum boat so that is a plus in my book.

Well atm I am only going to have to finance 5k of it.

Seems like its priced right to a stranger. I would like to see a family member give alittle better deal though.. http://www.trackerboats.com/boat/?boat=3245

Well he still owes 13900 or he would go lower. Thats my only thing is for 4k more, which I would have to wait before I could go 4k more, I could have a brand new boat, but it wouldnt have 24 volt trolling motor, cover, sonar/gps depthfinder, and the other goodies that are probably worth 2k or so. Which would probably get it up to around 20k or so. With less than 20 hours and the care of the boat I feel like its basically brand new.

Go on Tracker web site and build a boat just like that one and what it cost and if it is worth the difference to ya.
