Definitely........had the Starcraft surveyed. As for payment, that 40k
at
6.99% for 10 years. I'm not so concerned about the monthly payment as I
am
about resale value in about 5+ years. Seaswirl quit making these in
2003,
yet they did get good reviews while in production. I'm not expecting to
get
40k in 5 years but it would be nice if half was recovered.

it's a little steep for payments and you'll never recover your
investment.

i'd look around a little or put a larger amount of money down. you
will never get out from under that loan on that boat unless you have
at least 40 to 50% down and that's iffy.

I'm not that concerned about paying it off. Primary reason is that the
payment serves me well as a 2nd home tax write-off. In my retirement years,
hopefully 10 winters from now, different story.

We will definitely be looking around at other boats. That's half the fun.
