I just sold a Skeeter ZXD180 with a 150 and want to get a longer boat with a larger engine. based on what I have avilable in cash I am looking at about $13,000.00 unless I want to wait a few months when I will have about $4500.00 more. I hate being without a boat at this time of year but its a good time to sell. There is a nice looking Pantera lll on BBC for $13200.00 that I could swing but its in Alabama, long drive to say the least.Last edited by Olddawg on May 2nd, 2009, 10:29 pm, edited 1 time in total.

Sorry but if all goes well I can buy a 2000 jaguar with lighted compartments, hotfoot, New Motorguide trolling motor, tandem axle trailer with swing tongue, all the electronics including GPS and a 225 Optimax with hydraulic steering for $12,750.00 in very clean condition. I have photos but will wait until its a done deal before I post them…..

Well I pulled the trigger and bought the boat..its a 2000 Jaguar with basically a 2004 Optimax, all new factory top end 5 years ago and updated to 2004 specs and has seen minor use since then. Everything on the boat works fine although it will need seat skins in the near future. I will pick it up in a few weeks if all goes as planned. It cost me a little more than than had been agreed on when his fiancee found out what the price was but its still a bargain!Last edited by Olddawg on May 7th, 2009, 8:37 am, edited 1 time in total.

Can someone post a few photos for me of the boat that I picked up? Not sure how to do it on here yet….

There are some great deals out there if you consider all the places you can search. This one was found on Craigs List and was purchased for thousands below the average selling price. There are some real good deals on this site also but I set a goal and wanted to stick to it. Good luck in your search, if you widen your search area you will find more choices and although it may mean driving a little the money you may save will more than make up for what is spent on gas and your time.

It wont fit a jag either….Last edited by Olddawg on May 28th, 2009, 3:27 pm, edited 1 time in total.

Got it…thank you…..

[Olddawg]

Why dont you tell us how you REALLY feel……

[Olddawg]

Someone has to know about this set up…..

[Olddawg]

Thanks Mike, I have a lot of parts coming but nothing has arrived as of yet. New bucket seats and butt seats, new style steering wheel some carpeting, a Lowrance Lcx28, lms 520c and several other items. I think it will hit that 75 mark but it will be with a light load but if not its no big deal….I wanted it for fishing the Finger Lakes and Erie and over-all the boat is in great shape and just needed some upgrades. I am close to retirement so this is what I will have until I no longer fish. I am to damn old to worry about running with the pack but I do want the boat to be the best it can be everytime I use it. If I can find out what the starting measurements are for the engine settings I will go from there, I do know that the addition of the blow out ring should make a huge difference in the hole shot. I am pleased with the boat so far and in my opinion its the nicest boat I have ever owned so I really have nothing to gripe about.

I sent them an email to see what they recommended……I will post the answer here….
