Thinking about getting a bass boat

[CaptObvious]

I have a 17 foot 1990 Tracker Deep V with a Johnson 90hp. I have 1 livewell and 2 Humminbirds Helix. I have had this boat a long time. I love it! The only issue is that sometimes it can be a sailboat because of the high sides but that’s usually when it’s pretty breezy. It cuts thru the water and waves ok. I have electric trim and that really helps with that. When I wanted to take the grandkids out and tube, I’d remove all fishing gear and had plenty of room for a couple adults and several kids. I occasionally take it on the river, Elkhorn creek or lakes with my wife for a leisurely cruise. I’ve seen comparable boats that are newer and in decent shape from around $4,000 to $6,000. As with any boat, in my opinion, keep it in your garage, storage but keep it out of the weather. I hope this helps

I've got the exact year and model Bass Tracker that fire fighter offered with the exception of a bigger motor and different electronics. It is the best all around fishing boat I have ever owned and I have owned probably 6-7 over the years. It has a great floor plan, is plenty big for 3 people, and is light to pull. Fiberglass boats can be very heavy and I was always real nervous about fishing in tight or shallow spots in fear of damaging my finish. The only negative thing about the Tracker is it is difficult to fish in high wind. It just gets blown around too easily.
