[QUOTE="DaveInGA, post: 274182, member: 166"] Jay, Another thought or two: If you're interested in a 14 foot boat, try to get a 1448. It will be much more stable, especially if you gain weight as you age (I did). Second, post where you're located in your profile. That way, guys on the forum from your area can help you out with local pricing, etc. Boats vary in cost depending on what area they are in. A boat can sell for much more in a high demand area and time of year vs. a low demand area and low demand time of year. Since you're going to be fishing, I suggest looking to buy at the end of the fall fishing season, going into winter. Guys looking to ditch fishing gear to buy hunting gear will often offer great deals about that time of year. [/QUOTE]
