Bought mine brand new. Happy I did.
I get all the practical points, but I enjoy the new incentives with servicing and such. And, it’s purty.

Be sure the boat is at least 6' long for each passenger you intend to carry, so you can maintain proper social distancing.

Search Louisianasprortsman classifieds, Craigslist, and boattrader.com
Just beware of craigslist scammers. Tons of fake boat listings out there. If the price is too good to be true, it likely is. I've been used boat shopping for a few months and came across a good deal. Started up an email conversation via the seller's "work" email. Checked the domain and it was created the same day. Listing and their domain were both canceled shortly after.

Bring Out Another Thousand (BOAT)
Just make sure you keep about 10% of the value of the boat for annual maintenance expenses. Don't forget about taxes and insurance costs.

Lol anyone who gets scammed on a used boat is a tard
Water test or have a mechanic (or very knowledgeable buddy) check the engine. Decide what you want. Check classifieds. Be ready to buy when what you want is posted. Don’t pay the offer price.

think about this: if every sportsman waited to fish until he had $50k+ cash to allocate solely to a hobby, the water would be awful sparce. Hell, going lower would still alienate most average guys.
I will say this, if you can't finance at a reasonable rate (boat rates can be stupid high), then you should weigh options more careful including not purchasing something.
