			That's my favorite way to buy a boat. Old hull in clean shape with no motor. That way you get a nice hull and new power for roughly the square root of a new boat.

			This 250 sportsman went for $1576.05.  Pretty sweet deal, even if it does not have a trailer and needs power.

			Absolutely. Even if you budget $20k for new power and outdrive and electric, you are all-in to a new boat for less than $22k, assuming the hull is structurally sound. Best way to go IMO if there is a classic hull that you would be happy owning for the long-term.

			That's a good lookin hull.  I like the color.  If I ever get around to painting my V, I think I'm going w/ that.  I think it's called ice blue.
