if your willing to travel) at least 12/16 foot and well taken care of.
Please send pictures.

Why not look at new.

These start at about $530 and go up from there. I'm sure you can find a
dealer in your area. I just bought a little bigger Waco Jon Boat myself. I
went to www.directboats.com and got a price quoted with all the options from
Bobby Peacock. Pretty good price. Way under the suggested price. As a
courtesy to the local dealer I stopped in and told him I had a good price
from an on-line dealer. I did not tell him how much. I told him I would
buy the boat from him since he was local if he could get close. I expected
him to be slightly more especially after I added in sales taxes, but he beat
actually sold me the boat for almost the same price even after adding in
local sales taxes.

In other words, atleast in the nicer boats Waco allows some room to deal for
their dealers. On a less expensive boat like you are looking for there
might not be as much room to play, but it wouldn't hurt to ask.

Go here, http://www.texasfishingforum.com/cgi...i/Ultimate.cgi , and
look in the tradingpost section. There have been some there and you could
post asking for one like you want. You will get lots of responses. Also,
check here, http://whiskerkitty.com/6/ubb.x , and post/ask. On that site
though you have to sign up to view or post. Both of these are predominately
in the Dallas/Ft.Worth area but cover the entire state.

Wish you were closer to Atlanta. I just bought a used 20ft boat and need to
pass on a Tracker Pro165 16ft aluminum with a 25hp Tracker (Merc). And yes
this is an obvious attempt to advertise the boat. Takers?

Shelby Foles,


Just curious. How well did that 25 push that Tracker?

I see guys locally running 70s on 16.5 foot aluminum boats.

I'm putting a 50 on mine.

Good idea Steve! But he already did, the day before he posted here. I
thought I read that ad before.
