I started looking at cheaper boats but was steered towards a higher end boat by my brother. He bought a Regal 2100 and said that in five years the difference in boat quality would be obvious.

I looked at the Glastrons and Larsons and those can be had for 35K.

The catch is I plan on keeping this boat for ten years and do not want to upgrade after a couple of years. All the dealers I have talked to do not have a boat on their lot equipt the way I want it and all try to sell me what they have. This Ebbtide dealer actually has a boat the way I would order it so that is why I was wondering.

Since you seem to be in the know, How much room does a dealer have to move to make a deal? 32k for a boat that listed at over 50K seems to good to be true.

I looked at the Four Winns H210 but when I priced it out is was 57K the Ebbtide was 53k with the duoprop (approx 3k option)

I get the dealer service aspect if the price is close enough I would buy locally.

I have looked for used but there doesn't seem to be much over 20' that has the engine/options configurations I am looking for.

If you come accross any thing like this let me know.

21-22ft open bow
Volvo stern drive 5.0 GXi or 5.7 GXi (efi)
Duo prop (if I can get it)
Wake board tower and covers
Tandem axle trailer
New or next to new condition

Thanks for the input
