In my boating past I owned three Bayliners and a Four Winns. Bayliners are entry level boats and they built a ton of them so are plentiful and cheap. Construction is not bad but like anything else there are better out there. The Four Winns I had was a 22.5' Cuddy with a 5.7 Chevy and OMC King Cobra I/O, that was a fantastic boat we really enjoyed it except for the appetite for fuel. In your situation if you want a smaller boat like 16-18' I would go with a outboard, it will provide a little more interior space. Basically purchasing a used boat there are common sense areas to check, weak/spongy floors, stringers ( framework ) and transom. As long as these areas are solid and the motor works you should be good to go.
