Last year. A friend of mine has a 21 footer with a 250 merc on it. Another
friend just got rid of his 22 foot Bullet, also with a 250 merc. It was
slightly faster than the Gambler and a better rough water ride. But the
Gambler was much nicer to fish out of.

I would say between $22,750 - $26,500. I would be more incline to offer
$22,750 because it was a pro staff boat that has been fished on a lot of big
water and he probably got that boat for about $26000 new. If it was Joe
Weekend, were the boat never saw big water, I might go as high as $26,500.

but never had a "ride" in one of them....but I love the name!!!! grin

I guess the bottom line is that there's no perfect boat eh?

Absolutely correct. Take the Bullet I was talking about earlier. Nver sawa
a boat with so much leg room behind the consoles. Flat out flew , was great
in reasonably rough water, handled well, was gorgeous to look at, and had
great storage room and design. But as big as it was, I always felt cramped
fishing out of the front of it, because it was so narrow up front. If the
opportunity to buy one came along, the deal would have to be VERY
attractive dollarwise.

On the other hand, the Gambler felt quite roomy (and very stable) fishing.
It is easily the sexiest looking bass boat on the water. Also flies. And I
respect the fact that the guy with the fiberglass repair business, who
knows better than anyone how they are built, buys one for himself every 3
years. If the opportunity to buy one came along and I was in a position to
do so, I would grab it, as long as the deal was reasonable. Still not a
perfect boat, but damned close.

You, me, anybody who wants it can pick up a '2002' with a 225 Yamaha from a
Diehard Gambler Owner who has only fished a local chain of lakes (Portage
Chain for Michigan Gang's reference) for $27,500 with Lowrance 15x, Minkota
103 or 7?, hot foot, 3-bank charging system, etc. He has serious heart
issues (3rd or 4th heart attack), and his kids are not into fishing. I was
offered this boat about a month ago "with just for me pricing", but I think
you could get the same price. I really think he just wants it to go to
somebody who is going to use it and Thoroughly enjoy it, as he has loved all
his Gamblers. When this man goes, the world should shed a tear, for they
will have lost one GREAT Man!!!
