I'm looking for a jet boat to use primarily in NE Arkansas on some of our shallow rivers and floodway ditches. I'm not looking for a hot rod gas guzzler (we have a lake boat already). I just want something that will cruise at a decent speed and not have to worry about dragging bottom or knocking the lower unit off on a log. Probably do a little fishing, but mainly just some cruising and exploring the shallows. Most of the time it will just be two adults with a medium size cooler.
Here's the info from the ad:
2001 16' F&F Custom Boat made in Monticello,AR
2001 Bear trailer
1997 Mariner 30 Jet outboard (4 cyl 40hp)
Carpet throughout
Live well
Foot control trolling motor
New bimini with boot
Fish finder
Full length trailerable cover
4 seats
Plus the standard pitch: "excellent condition, clean, runs and looks great, etc..." :lol:
Asking Price is a little over $4,000.
Any specific problems that I should look for other than transom condition, dents and gouges? Obviously I would have to try it out before I purchase it.
I've been looking for a boat with a 60/40 jet, but I haven't found any decent used ones for sale that weren't asking a new price. :roll: If I could find a decent boat, I'd gladly buy a new motor to hang on the back.
Thanks,
