    Wtb: fishy boat

    Hey guys

    Been thinking about a boat a lot lately. Don't need anything fancy just want to fish a ton. Primarily thinking about a drifty or a very fishy cataraft, but I would think about a raft, too.

    I've looked around on KSL and Craigslist, and I'm just putting out some feelers to see what exists. Don't need a lot of bells and whistles. Just wanna fish a lot.

        Sold. Lots of bells and whistles anyway. More of a 2-kidney boat.

            Yo. Here’s an older Hyde that’s been up on Fort Collins CL for about a month. Most people want rafts in this zone, so maybe you can talk him down?

                I'm curious, what makes that a good deal? I feel like for Hyde and Clackaraft, I'm paying mostly for the name brand, if anything. Lots of boats between here and Jackson for $3k-$5k

                    goddamn elitist two kidney 1%er right here

                    now you're gonna say something about it only being a boat for people with their whole liver intact

                    maybe if I stopped getting dumb tattoos I could afford a nice boat like yours

                      In the post-Covid era, I’ve seen very few decent boats with trailers in the sub 5k range. Most of that price range has some major issue, no title, ect. But if you find a good one …..scoop it right away. They go quick.

                      Clacks and Hyde’s are well made, good track record, relatively easy to repair, and hold their value.

                      I have no affiliation to that boat I posted, just saw it a few weeks ago scrubbing the list

                        Ha you have been hanging out with dibs for sure!!! Yea what was said earlier. Hyde’s and clacka are well made and very reliable with long track records. My 1996 is still going strong (sold it to a buddy). That Yellowstone drifter looks like a pretty sweet boat. I think if you spend less than $5k you are going to end up with something that is going to have more problems than you w to deal with

                          Lol no not his influence - I'm just tired of seeing 10 year old boats with an asking price of $12k. I don't know the market well enough to say with any certainty, but that sure feels like COVID inflation to me.

                          That Yellowstone looks sweet. It was actually already on my radar, but I don't really know how to evaluate good deals.

                            Sorry, I didnt mean to blow up that one if you’re watching it… took the link down.

                            As long as there’s no major damage and trailer is in good shape, you’ll be stoked with the 5k purchase. Pick one you like the look of and go for it! You’ll be able to get most if not all your money back if you need to get out of it

                            Don’t worry about small scratches and dings, you’ll run it into a bunch of shit. Nicer oars are a big plus for me, because you probably won’t spend the 1k on new ones right away.
