New boat question
Posted: February 14th, 2021, 4:36 pm
Hello all,
I am new new to the forum and really enjoy the information! Just bought a home on the water on Surf Road, Panacea. Previously had a home in SGI for ten years but things were getting a little built up for us. We have 4, 6 and 15 year old children and do everything together as a family. Currently have a 18ft G3 but am looking at buying another boat, my wife wants a boat with more freeboard for safety and room. In the past have had 24’ pathfinder, 28’ Fountain, 24’ Scout etc so I’m not new to boating/fishing but this area is really different to me. So on to my question, any advice on a boat to buy, safe for the kids, offshore on nice days for bottom fishing (hard to spearfish with little ones), inshore and exploring. I was thinking 22-24’ vee but this water is a-lot skinner than I am used to, price range up to 60k or so.
I appreciate any advice and look forward to contributing to the forum.
Thanks!
