Just went and picked this one up, 05 bass tracker with a mercury 50hp. The boat is in perfect condition, everything works, and 130 psi on all cylinders for 5k. Excited to get it on the water, thank you all for your honest advice

Congrats!!! Looks like a great starter boat that you can do a lot with, and invest a little in overtime to upgrade and make it what you want. That trailer looks really clean. Best of luck with it. 

Strong work @MikeB24!!! Congrats!

 

Now the really fun part starts...getting to know the boat/motor/trailer, organizing things, upgrades, etc. Enjoy!!!

 

And post more pictures!!

Congratulations! Looks like a well cared for rig. Well done

You better take a picture of your first fish off the boat with the results, or we'll come to your house and kick your ass.  ;)

Congratulations on the new boat be safe and catch a bunch of fish.

Alright guys it ran fine my first 2 days i brought it out, today i noticed it runs perfect fine at low rpms but once i get it to high rpms its like the prop just quits spinning. It revs up fine but the prop just wont spin it seems like, any advice?

Spun the hub meaning you need to have the prop hub repaired with new clutch packing. Not a big deal!
