Do not get a bow rider they are no good in chop. You can
take water over the bow and it has no place to go but in
the boat. Stay with a solid bow and high free board

Hi David,

I would try to find something that is less than 10 years

old if possible.

I know they like fiberglass skiffs for the salt water.

Take your time and don't buy something that needs tons of

work unless that
is OK with you.

I am guessing that it would be around 16' and 25hp to

70hp?



If you are talking fishing right off the coast, within a
mile or two of
it, and know when to go out, you might like one of these:

My guess is that for six large you can get the boat, trailer
and a 20 hp
outboard and have a rig that will be suitable for nearshore
and inshore
fishing.


These are really nice dories.
