Does any one have a small aluminum fishing boat that they are ready to sell?

Re post this under the classifieds, check there, if nothing go onto craigslist. Lots of boats on there, just be cautious. I just thought of something, a buddy of mine has a 16' flat bottom that needs a little work, it floats and fishes just fine but needs some cracks fixed by the transom, we hunted it for duck season and a few fishing days this spring. It would be boat only, no motor or trailer, he lives in CDA. He would probably let it go for $400.

Definatly check craigslist. You have to check it several times a day though because those go fast. Good Luck

Watch out on Craigslist though, I see a lot of junkers/money pits and people ask a lot for them. You should be able to find a nice 12-14 foot jon/vhull on a decent trailer for under $1000, just be looking on CL a lot, those usually go the day of or the day after...Not a lot of people selling good shaped smaller aluminums, lots of people trying to get a used one before they go new....
