16bayfisher Posted May 27, 2018 Report Share Posted May 27, 2018 Look out for 18' pathfinders with 90 or 115 2 strokes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Captain, they're more than likely to be in his price range. A 18' with a 115 2 stroke will do high 30s easy. Not so sure what the 90s will do, but OP wanted safe, slow is safe.

Really just run around the river in Jupiter. I assume they are slow which is fine. I've seen a couple for sale in the $13K range, that's a little more than I can afford. I think I'll find one for $10K. Thanks for any input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justfish Posted May 28, 2018 Report Share Posted May 28, 2018 The 18’ with 90 would be a great boat for someone that age. The 115 would actually easily push it in 40’s. Also a key west 1720 would be high on my search list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seacraft1974 Posted June 14, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 Just looking for any updates. I'm buying something before end of weekend. Summer is here and I've been looking for awhile. I've been using my big boat but that's too big and I don't like the idea of a 15 yr running around in an expensive boat, sets a bad example. Let me know what's out there. Than you.
