another toy followed me home ! boat
I've owned several boats over the past 25 years or so with the last one being a 13 ' Boston Whaler that I refurbished. Sold the Whaler and took a break for a while. About two months ago I started to get the itch for another one. Decided for me and the wife/grandchildren a center console was the way to go. Started searching the local Craigslist ads and there were quite a few to choose from. Looked at several and decided to go with this one. From what I can tell from the net Hydra Sports was a middle of the road quality boat from OMC one of many boat brands they sold. This one the hull is damn near perfect I only found two nicks in the hull about the diameter of a pencil or smaller. Jumped up and down on the entire interior no soft spots. Wiggled the outboard up/down the transom is solid as a rock. Nice clean Yamaha outboard and a trailer in perfect shape. Best of all I talked the seller down to a final price of $2600.00 ! I think I stole this one  The only thing it needs is the seats are shot they are cracked/weathered but I'll get them redone in the fall for now just going to clean her up and use it. Here are some pics from the CL ad. And she fits in my garage so no storage hassles. I'm happy
