Looking for a Walkaround

[Striper295]

I was getting all geared up to start a new summer on the big lake and the boat we were planning on purchasing didn't pass the pre purchase inspection.
So now we are looking again for a Walkaround type boat.
If anyone has or know of a clean preferably Striper or Key West I'm very ready to make a purchase.
I noticed there isn't a "For Sale" section in this forum, maybe a good idea to start one..

Hope all of you who do have a boat are having fun safe time on the lake.

What is your price range and what size are you looking for?

Hi, look under the classifieds for used boats.

Try looking at this forum site "Winnipesaukee Classifieds" :)

Love Striper and Key West boats!

There's a couple on route 106 in the Belmont area I have seen recently.

You may also want to contact Thurston's Marina as I believe they are a dealer of both and may have used one.

I saw the most beautiful walk-around style boat at the Glendale docks a couple weeks ago. It had two Evinrude 300 etecs on the back and the most beautiful paint and graphics I have ever seen. A real eye catcher!

Good luck in your search!

O.K., I just came up 106 and there is a nice Seahunt center console with an Envinrude etec outboard sitting on a trailer right across the street from the entrance of the racetrack in Loudon. Boat appears to be relatively newer and in very good shape, I would guess 24 - 25' in length. Well worth checking out.

so are you looking for a walk around cuddy, or a center console? maybe i missed it if you specified..

Yeah I was a little confused too but when he mentioned "Key West" I figured he meant Center Console as Key West only makes one "walk around" cuddy style boat that really is not a fishing boat. The rest of their boat line are all center console and what they are known for...

Thurston's has a nice used one for sale right now, $42k,

There is an Aquasport walkaround on Dover Point Road in Dover for sale. I haven't checked today, but think at one point it was listed on the forum classifieds. I believe it is owned by the person that put out the Winnipesaukee dvd.

Make an offer! Why do people sell boats? They meed money to: pay for college, buy a bigger boat, start a business, etc. I sold a boat in early March at a low ball offer because I didn't want to be a two boat owner, I didn't want to pay launch, spring tuneups, etc. Saved me thousands and the buyer had cash in hand. I made a low ball offer on my next boat and was successful. I didn't argue about some fix up stuff. Through casual conversation and Google I learned the owner had left his company and was starting a new business. He wanted immediate cash flow and did not want to continue paying yard fees while he waited to sell. In both cases, the asking price was just a place to start a conversation.

I apologize if this moves the thread off point a little.
