I own a Key West, not that model, but can tell you they are above average fit and finish and known for their ride quality. Have had mine for over 2 years now, really like it.

The one thing driving me nuts is that boats don't have fish boxes. Da fack

The key west would be perfect but not fish box :/

Cape horn was one of the only Bay boats with fish boxes. If you could find an 18 or 22 Bay you would love it.

That's an awesome boat. Pathfinders are top notch.

Yeah they are pretty good. One of the things I don't particularly like about the Pathfinders though are the low gunnels.

55k is a lot though. You can get into a lot of used 24 footers for that price.

I'm probably selling my 2002 21ft blazer bay after the summer for that 10-15k range. Looking to upgrade.

Like others have said, go slightly used if possible. It'll take a little time but you can find what you want for several thousand cheaper. Boats will break. It's just a fact of life. So save thousands and get something with a few hours on it.

Got a 22 pathfinder with yamaha150 four stroke under 200 hours for under 20k. Guy never used it.
Put 25 hours on it this season so far. Great boat.

I have a Young 24 with a Suzi 300 on the back. Great boat... fantastic fit and finish and a great ride. Prepare to shell out big money for one though... even the used ones hold their value very well.

i have a xpress hb 20 its a 2012, i have had it three years. its a great boat, has the 115 on it which i wish i had gotten the 22 with 150 or 200. but overall a great boat, ive added a lowrance unit and power pole. havent had any issues with it in three years. rides great but not as good as fiberglass. i paid 23k before they went up. you can find plenty of used ones like it. my next boat is an epic, blue wave, or blackjack

I would be terribly remiss if I didn't take this opportunity to suggest a panga model.
