Well Johnny,
Personally I want a maintenance free boat..
What kind of waters will you be fishing ? if I lived on the big "O" or fished tournys I'd have to have a nice Tracker..but for small lakes ..a simple jon will be more than enough.I live by enough small lakes where a 10- 14 ' jon is big enough and motors up to 15 HP is plenty.

I wish you well with your new boat..I would personally have to have a ride in it and see how bad it smoked , what the transome looked like when you gunned it, how easy it was to startand if it leaked. Also, check the trailor lights . That stuff can nickel and dime you to death.
