Thanks Tom and John H for taking the time to reply. A local dealer
handles Trophy which appears to be OK and I've located a 2 year old
Grady White for what appears to be a reasonable price. I shouldn't
have so many choices - reminds me of buying my first stereo system!


Well, let us know what you come up with. Tell us more about the Grady. I've
talked to a couple Trophy owners, and they have seemed pretty satisfied. I like
Grady's, but think they are ridiculously priced.

Well, the Grady is an 18' 2003 with full electronics, trailer, and 4
stroke Yamaha for about the same price as a 19' Trophy.

Just took in the boat show in (near) DC and saw what appeared to be
a decent alternative for my needs. It was a 21' Sea Fox with
GPS/depth and VHF, trailer, Merc 150 optimax and other options for
significantly less than the 21' Trophy. Any ideas on this boat??
Only other "good deal" boat I saw were several Sea Pros but little
things like funky locker handles etc. made me a bit leery - but 2
lookers commented that their friends that had them thought they were
good boats. Anyone???

How was the show? I was thinking of running out there tomorrow (I live in
Alexandria).
