Hello all. Need help deciding on a couple of boats.
First up is a 2002 Fisher pro hawk 1860 w/ 115 merc 4-stroke. Has 80lb ultrex, big livewells, tons of storage.
Second (and third, etc.) is I have been looking at Bass Tracker 175TWX’s. Most have 60hp and edge trolling motor.
One in particular I have found is 2015 175TF model, 45lb edge and 60hp merc. Needs some cleaning but otherwise nice boat. This is listed about $1000 more than the fisher.
The second tracker is a TWX, edge and 75hp 2012. $2500 more than fisher.
The third is a 2014 TWX, 60hp and edge. $2500 more than fisher.
So, do I choose the older boat that has everything I need, better layout, faster boat, ultrex with spot lock, etc., or continue to look for a tracker that’s a bit newer for longevity purposes.
It’s a toss up, as I’d probably look to buy a new/different boat once I’m done graduate school.
thanks
