Anyone have any info good or bad on SailFish Boats? I am looking at a 1998
18' center console with a 90 h.p. Yamaha outboard and trailer. I'm live in
Michigan and have not heard of this brand. I hear it is popular down south.
Looks like a nice boat.

I second Eisboch.

Well built, well thought out. They are heavier than most boats of
their class and that 90 is marginal in terms of speed and getting the
boat up on plane. Very stable boats while trolling which is a plus.

I'd pay the hours shop time and have the engine gone through. Might
want to check the bottom of the boat if it's been trailered espiecally
along the centerline and the bow. That's one area on these type boats
that can be problematic. Look for gouges, pits and such as that.

Open and close all the lockers, doors and make sure the water pumps
work for the live well and bilges.

Nice boat - you should enjoy it.
