Hello guys new to this forum!
Not a first time boat buyer but first "tin" boat for me. I'm going to look at two very similar boats tomorrow (looked at the first briefly already once) and want opinions between the two, so here they are.
First is a '96 14' Rebel, in decent shape, could use a thorough cleaning. Comes with the following; Lowrance fish finder, 6hp Johnson outboard, outboard stand, gas tank, electric trolling motor (needs mounting bracket replaced) and a battery (unknown condition). Comes on a trailer that is a bit too big for the boat right now, it might be able to be adjusted through moving the winch stand and needs lights replaced. Asking $1,100 for it.
Second is a '94 14' Laker. Looks decent enough in pictures. Comes with a 25hp Mariner outboard and a trailer. Asking $1,700.
I'm leaning towards the Laker because it comes with the better engine. What do you guys think?
