Terry's boat sounds like a decent deal and 4k for a sled isn't that bad of a deal. Especially when it starts getting over 18'.
Sounds like you are looking for something for $1000 or less. Might want to stick with cruising CL and start looking for a fixer Drift Boat (which there is a few on their right now). If you can't afford a sled now; you certainly won't be able to afford the fuel...
Another hint: When you post try to make it so a guy could read it once. Complete words, sentence's... Last but not least 23 years old is not a kid. People like you must be why other people say I am still a baby @ 24 years old.
