Dave R. Is absolutly right. A clean first impresion means alot.
Lots of people go boat window shopping around the lake. When we decided to get another boat back in 94 we just jumped in the car and hit all the major marinas around the lake. We felt we knew these boats were lake used only. To us a 10 year old boat would be better than perhaps a 1 or 2 year old boat that had some salt in and on it. A marina like Silver Sands or Irwin are right on the main roads in the most populated areas and get tons of lookers. One thing I liked a Silver Sands is that if I wanted to take a test drive. That boat was in the water in about 10 min. that was important to us. That made is very convenient for us to not have to keep coming back and forth. Like I said these as well as other marinas have great reputations for quality used boats. Good luck.
