    First Bass boat

    Im Looking to buy my first bass boat and I was wondering if I could get some opinions from you professionals out there. I don't know a ton about bass boats yet but I'm looking to spend $5000 or less. Right now the two that I'm looking at are about the same price(one $5000 and the other is $5400) and I wanted to see what you guys think or if you had any other suggestions... I'm looking at a 1992 Bumble Bee 200 Pro Vee with mercury 200hp and a 97 Sprint 277 with Evinrude 115. I'm Not as concerned with speed as I am with stability and storage.

    Thanks In advance

    You know, it's about the end of the year. A lot of people who are thinking about getting new boats will usually wait until the boat shows start or the first of the year. You may want to wait a little while, you should be able to get a better boat, at a lessor price, by waiting till winter. You should be able to get a pretty, nice premium brand, boat for $5000 - $5500

    You would probably get a better ideal if you logged on to" Bass Boat Central". It's a great site to find anything about boats, fishing or anything else you want to know

    How much boating experience do you have? With a 200hp motor things can really ugly really fast.
