Hey guys... newbie to the boating world here... I am interested in purchasing my first boat. I have never driven a boat. I have always wanted one and finally decided to pull the trigger.. I will be mainly using it for watersports and driving it around Ft. Lauderdale and Key Biscayne area... if anyone has other suggestions please let me know.. I will be going for a test sea run on Saturday with the owner... what should i look out for during the test run? (They stated that it has not been in the water since September 2007 but they occasionally start it and run the hose water through it..) and if i like it then bringing it to RIVA Mot9orsports ( www.rivamotorsports.com ) in Pompano Beach, Fl for a check up ($125) to test the engine and look over then boat and then run it in the water.... and if all is good then make an offer on the boat. What do you guys think is a "good buy" for me I check NADA values on this and it says $9500 is the low retail...
I'm open for any type of comments & suggestions about buying it or not... please explain your reason so i can understand why...
