Update from OP:

Found a 2004 Kenner 18v with a 2006 Mercury 115 4 Stroke.

$10,000.

Trailer fell apart on my way home, so immediately got a new trailer.

Trolling motor was a POS 12v motorglide.

Took it to the long rocks a few weeks ago and boat handled great, motor ran well.

Boat is at Tim's Marine getting a 24v terrova and a power pole.

Will have this boat rigged out, new trailer, etc. for at $19,000.

Right on budget, and what appears to be a solid 1st purchase.

Sorry for laughing, but I had such a terrible time with my one bay boat trailer purchase.

This is where I'm at with a potential buy for an 18ft Triton Sea Flight. Needs some fiberglass work to patch screw holes. Will need new rub rail and bottom paint too. The Ubolts on trailer need to be replaced. After all said and done I'll be between 15-20k. Also taking the Dolphin Pro 2 Ttop off and selling to help offset costs.
