Looking for 18-20 ft bay boat max of 32k. 115hp-150hp. Don't need 150hp if the boat can do 40 on a 115.

So far I have been looking at
Nautic Star
Blazer Bay
Blue Way
Tidewater

I like the Skeeter SX20 too but it looks to be just beyond that budget from what I can tell. I would buy used if the right boat came along but Im not looking to buy for a couple of months so its hard to look at used boats at this time.

you can get a base nautic star with 150 for about 30k with nothing in it. blue wave is prob out of budget. dont know much about tidewater.

the skeeter zx20 can be priced about 28k with a 115 maybe 150, check with cajun outboards. all are decent boats i have mentioned. if it was me i would get a used blazer bay or blue wave.

you need a 150 on this size boat, especially if you are spending $32K on a boat. I would also consider getting a larger boat and buying used. 18-20 is simply not big enough for most "bay" situations in Louisiana (unless you have a deep V).

You can get a LOT of used boat for $32K, I promise.

Agree that Blue Wave is probably just over your budget.

You should be able to comfortably get into a 19 ft Naitic Star or Blazer Bay 1960 though. Both are nice. I'd give a slight edge to the Nautic Star.

I don't know much about the Tidewater boats other than they are a good value brand.

Do not get a Skeeter. You should be able to get an 18ft Nautic Star with a 115 for about 25000. Dockside in Bogalusa has good prices. I got price from them and Aquamarine in NOLA agreed to get close to it so I bought it locally.
