Any nice used boats out there ?

Are there any used boats out there for sale ?  Looking for something to fish the lake with preferably set up with downriggers etc already.  Something that isn't beat to death.  Someone has to know of a good deal out there.  Please send me any info or leads that you may have.  Appreciate the help !  Thanks !

    greenhead, If you are looking for a good lake boat the best place to look is on e-bay. And locate you search within 400 miles of Detroit Mich. Lots of good boats on there.

    Is this too much boat ?  I think I was looking more for a walk around or a center console.  Thats a lot of cuddy.  What do you guys think ?

    I dont think you would be happy fishing out of that boat. It doesnt even look like you could get more than 2 people perchin off the back.

    No such thing as too much boat if you want to fish Erie. That boat would allow you to fish in comfort, and would ride well. It also looks like it is already pretty well equipped. The listing doesn't tell what's under the hood, so make sure its not underpowered. I wouldn't call it a bargain, but that price seems reasonable for a 14 year old boat in that condition (rack stored). Good luck in your search!

    check the marinas around erie as well.  I know our marina sells used boats.  I havent been on the website in awhile but its http://www.northeastmarina.com  Might find something there and if not Mark might be able to find something to fit your needs.
    Good luck.

    i dont know these guys but when i was looking they always seemed to have some nice boats.  plenty of marinas on erie in ohio with tons of boats.  bigger is better but watch the towing weight.  you dont want to buy a boat and then find out you gotta spend another 30k on a truck to tow it.

    Bought our Baha from them. Wasn't the greatest experience for us but we did get it. But maybe other people had better luck.
