"I bought a boat 2 weeks ago.
"I bought a boat 2 weeks ago. a friend needed some help and gave me a good deal in return. I never fished from it but he liked it a lot.
Then, I inherited a boat this week.
Now I have a boat in the driveway and one I need to pick up and also put somewhere. I want to sell one. Don't want to have to fish and drive both to decide, just too inconvenient.
I Need Help. Which would you keep? Sell?
I intend to mostly fish lakes with no specific engine requirements and don't tend to fish if the weathers bad. The two boats are
1998 Basstracker Proteam 17.5' 2003 Mercury 75hp 2 stroke oil injection.
1985 Ranger 372V 17.5' 1990 Evinrude 150hp V6 2 stroke oil injection.
Both boats are in nice shape. I know most of the history on both boats. They both have tilt/trim, good trolling mtr, live well, electronics, good trailers etc. The ranger has a second console, wider beam and is made of fiberglass. The basstracker is aluminum.
I would love some opinions and/or good or bad experiences with these motors or boats. THANKS!}}"
