    Hey guys.  Hopefully the deal goes down smoothly tomorrow so, of course, I'll be on the prowl for the next Murphy's Law.  I'm looking for a boat with the following characteristics:

    - reasonable draft (8-10 inches or less)
    - relatively new and in great condition (well maintained, etc.)
    - at least 50 ponies in the back
    - 16-17 foot range
    - preferably center or side console
    - reasonably dry ride
    - V entry

    Price range is $6,500ish.  Let me know if you all have/find anything :)

    Remember it's bad luck to copy a boat name, you gotta add a 2 after it or something ;)

    Re: On The Lookout

    Still lookin'! I've done my fair share of driving to look at different boats...nearly every time driving home disappointed.

    Looking for HP range from 60-90 (115 max)...preferably a Yamaha.

    Mainly looking for Hewes lapstrake boats, Action Crafts, etc.

    The boat and trailer will have to fit in a 22.5' garage.

    Thanks for your help so far, guys!
