Im looking in to purchasing this boat, Boat here and after looking it over fairly theroughly it apears to be in good shape. My question is, is that to good a price for everything to be in decent working order? -also can anyone tell me about the reliabilty, reputation,etc of a mercury such as the one on there? Ive herd that mercury's arnt the greatest for reliabilty or saltwater, but thats just what ive herd and would like a more professional opinion from yall.

I have a 1995 Wellcraft 190ccf and like it very much,smooth in rough water and very dry riding, and can take a pretty good beating. Although I am not a fan of mercury they are good motors. I have just always had Johnsons or Evinrudes. Just a personal preference. I'd say go with this boat but have it checked out especially the motor, before you make any decisions.

I have the same boat as Bullit, except it is a 96 model with a 130 Johnson.
So I don't have any advice on the motor, but my 96 is still a workhorse here on Lake Lewisville.
