If you pay 59k for a boat I'll personally come to hayden and put a bob barker slider upside your forehead.

Have an 09 Bass Tracker. Works great for what I use it for.
Life is a journey. Make sure and bring plenty of Beer.
My luck has been so bad lately, it could be raining pussies and I'd catch one with a dick broke off in it.

They had a nice Skeeter at the Classic - 57,500.
It could have been yours for $480 per month - FOR 15 YEARS!!
I'll stick with my old Tracker.

Best decision I ever made was to stop fishing. Chit, I have saved "bill gates" type money since. Theres no telling how nice of a house & truck I would have if I didn't fish. A buddy of mine asked me to start playing golf, hell I'd have to file for bankrupcy with another expensive hobby like that. lol 
The fool tells me his reasons; the wise man persuades me with my own.

I've been debating on getting an 18 foot bass tracker or express with a 90/115 4 stroke on the back. They can get you in one for the low monthly payment of like 130 bucks for 13-15 years
We will burn that bridge when we get there

Just end up paying 40,000 for a 20,000 boat but Id rather have the low payment myself just incase I got laid off I could still afford it

Who gave you those prices? Im curious because that sounds like a good deal, a 18-20 ft aluminum boat with a 150 four stroke would be what i would get if i could keep the payments low

Steel man I think you are greatly underestimating the power of a 4 stroke, my 18 foot center console aluminum boat has a 90 Yamaha and goes plenty fast and that's with a 50 gallon bait tank in it holding nearly 500 pounds of water and my fat butt and whoever else is fishing with me plus a cooler and ice and all my fishing gear. My grandfather had a 20 foot flats skiff with a 150 merc 2 stroke and switched to a 115 Yamaha 4 stroke and experienced no loss in speed or power. Actually I don't know if you will find many aluminum boats rated for much more than a 115.

Have a 30hp 4 stroke on my Tracker. Plenty fast and the gas mileage is great.

For an all around boat it can't be beat has big live wells he changes the oil about once a year even though he should do it more it's an 02/03 model and he has never had a bit of trouble and it looks excellent
