Hi guys

I have been fishing bass for about 10 years an the last 2 years it got allot more serious!
So i have decided to bite the bullet and buy myself my first bass boat that don't fit onto the back of my bakkie...
I am looking for a bass boat of about 14- 16 feet in length, preferably one without a motor.
I already bought a 50 hp mercury for a good price.

Please guys some help would be great!

O, ok. No I don't personally, but I was looking into getting a boat a little while ago and came across a few.. I'll see if I've still got the details and I'll let you know.

I'm going to take a look at a boat in Durban on Tuesday. I think its the same one you mentioned with the faulty motor.Looks like a great boat.

What a disappointment!

I Drove 2000km for the boat in Pinetown for nothing!
Got there and the guy were busy working on the trailer!
It rusted and he was busy cutting of parts and trying to fix it. then i asked for the papers of the trailer and the owner could produce nothing!Wheel bearings were not up to standard,studs were missing.

The guy promised me that i could take the boat straight from him,put a new motor on and go fish...

What a liar!

So I,m back to square one.

Wow Dellas, I'm really sorry to hear that man. Well I'll keep my ear to the ground for any news on available hulls.

I would not spend anything under 60k on a boat - you will have nothing but trouble otherwise.

Sorry guys this is a hard reality with boats - the hull is worth nothing -it is the motor that is the value part.

Ask any guy that has had to have motor repaired overhauled..... overhaul on an old motor will set you back in the region of 30k and guess what you still have an old motor....
