Budget, around 15k with about 5k down. I know that the self-store just down the road from me has 24 hour access, the use swipe cards. The only issue would be trying to get one of the front spots that i can get the boat in and out of. The option of storing the boat outside is completely out of the question, backyard is a hill, and the neigborhood assosiation doesnt allow it. James

I would be fishing freshwater only, but i will be taking it to Lake St. Clair once in a while. Im thinking fiberglass.

Hello, I'm a new member who has been fishing for two years and am quite addicted to it. I'm 20, soon to be 21. I fish with a club where I live and really enjoy it, I've got a friend who lives on a lake and has a Triton and I fish with him when I can, but it can be a little difficult, because he lives almost an hour away. So I've been thinking about getting my own boat. I've read a lot about first time boat buying, but I would like some of the more experienced people to help me with my problem. I have read many people say that when you're ready to buy your first bass boat they should get a used boat, and I was wondering if it was strictly because of price or were there other things as well. One other question, where do you guys store your boat? I don't have any room in my garage for a boat, so I was thinking of one of those self-store places, good idea; bad idea? Any help or advice you can give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks James
