Buying a Boat

Thanks guys, so I've settled on the boat, now I need an electric
trolling motor. I've been looking at Minn Kota's Maxxum, Vector, and
Endrua brands. Any suggestions(id like it to have maximizer tecnology
built in)? I like the Maxxum, its the most expensive of the 3 but its
the best I can get for my money($330), heres a link


http://www.minnkotamotors.com/produc...unt/maxxum.asp


Next is the Vector its got pretty much the same features as the Maxxum
and costs a bit less
($270), heres a link


http://www.minnkotamotors.com/produc...unt/vector.asp


And last is the Endura, its got less features and cost less, and lacks
a maximizer. It sells for $240, heres a link

And if u have any suggestions other than these three feel free to post
them

Don't know about any of those.

I have a 35# Minnkota 765MX (elec foot pedal) on a 14' V along with a
25 horse Evinrude. I would check out the local Minnkota repair shop
and see what he has in rebuilt motors or motors that people have
traded in on a new or larger model. The guy down in Milwaukee, where
I got mine, is honest and will not sell a rebuilt he is not satisfied
with. I forget where you are from so this might not help you. :{
I've learned that I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy it!

Also check out Cabelas "bargain cave". I bought my MK 65 AP from there.

Don't know if its still made, but search for Sun Dolphin Pro 120. I
bought mine in 2000 for $1200 brand new. 11 feet by 5 feet wide and
very stable with compartments, casting decks, seats, livewell, wiring
and lights, good weight capacity for a 11 foot. It is even rated for
up to 15 horse, if you choose to use an outboard at some point.

Downside, is it is probably just big enough for two if both are
fishing, but
