I was searching on craigslist today for boats and I came acorss a Sea Nymph boat the is 17' and is a bass style boat. It is mod v and looks a lot like a tracker. I'm not sure of the year yet, I emailed the guy and he hasn't emailed me back yet. I went on iBoats and found that Sea Nymph did make bass style boats. So I searched google and all I could find on Sea Nymph are the boats that Lowe makes. Does anyone have any information on Sea Nymph. Were they bought by Brunswick boat company? Are they still around today? Has anyone ever fished out of a Sea Nymph bass style boat?

Here is a picture.

Sea nymph boats have been around since the 60's maybe the 50's.  they where an independant co untill lowe bought them out in the early/mid 90's ( I think 93-94) they are very popular in the midwest and great lakes region. south of the masion dixion line I don't see many. I know here in Pa I can see Sea Nymph's on almost every body of water I fish. They are more known for their Deep V and V hulls, but I do see many of their bass boats running around.

They are very well built, maybe over built.  If I was to rank they in quality I would put them in the upper middle of  alum boats. Not quite a Lund, but nowhere near a tracker of the same area. No they are not around anymore. after lowe bought them they just turned in to a line of V hull boats.

I have fished out a a few of their V hulls, but never a bass style. the V hulls are all very stable and good running boats

I have a GLS( great Lake special) 175, not a bass style, but a deep V. Its a 1988 and is still rock solid. she has out lived a trailer and an outboard. floors still solid and transom rock hard.

they boat you are looking at, looks to be from before Lowe bought them. and that is good. In my opion the quality was better, before the buyout. that being said the older boats use alot of wood, so floors and decks might need changed. but because of how they where made it is very easy to chnage the floors or decks.

you will find sea nymph with every kind of motor and trailer out there. they were not sold in "packages" the dealer just rigged them with what ever they sold. so you can find several boat from the same year all with different motors on them and trailers under them.

Like I said they are well built. Mine is a 1988 and I bought it in 1995 when it was 8. Now I have had it for 13 years, averaging 100 trips a year, and she may have some scars, but scars are cool. but she is still a solid boat. and I don't see me getting rid of her anytime soon.

HPBB thanks for the information. I never did hear back from the guy that was selling this boat and it is no longer listed on craigslist so I am assuming he sold it already. The boat was listed on 5/29 and I emailed the guy that night and called the following and day and no response. I think this was probably a really good deal. All he wanted for the boat was $1100. I wish I would have at least gotten a chance to look at it.
