[QUOTE="FerrisBueller, post: 353927, member: 11145"] Razorback nailed it, it's an opinion-based plethora of answers to your questions. Stability all depends on the model of the v's as well. I'd recommend a 16' for something to start with. Very common (especially in the midwest) and more versatile than a 14'. I've got a 1985 Lund 16' and I spend a lot of time and a little money in gutting it out and making it perfect to what I enjoy fishing for. I think it's very stable for what I do. For a beginning boat I think it fits the ticket in my instance. I'd say that you could find something like mine in the range of $1100-2000 for a 16' v hull in the 80's-90's year models and a 20-25 hp engine and a decent working trailer. You could also expect to spend another 200-800$ to make it fishable to your liking depending on accessories/materials and how much work you want to do. [/QUOTE]
