Looking for 12'-15' utility boat.
 
Hey guys, I'm looking to buy a little utility boat, semi-V or flatbottom, 12'-15' in the Central Florida area. I need something real cheap to do a side job to throw on the roof of the truck and haul to California. I'm looking to obtain such by early Nov.

Old is good, ugly is okay, too. I've looked at several in the $150-300 range, but mostly they had no title, and/or leaked significantly.

Needs to hold 2 large adults, and mount a 9.9 outboard.

Here's the catch: It REALLY has to be inexpensive - like $200, and it must have a title.

Anybody got one collecting spiders or breeding skeeters?

Hi Father Frank,
Not sure if you're planning on fishing on the way, but if a boat is not required for your trip, I can assure you that there are tons of tin cans out here, as most of the Sierra lakes are small and thus Grandpa's old 12-14' Valcos, Gregors and Klamaths are everywhere. People in the Sierra foothills are getting ready for winter, too. And people here are hurting for $ so you might find some deals... Just a thought.

Hey FF,

Check out the bottom on this old 14' Sears Gamefisher!

You could always try to score one of these ;)

Hey FF
Some of my best finds have come From Craigslist. Enjoy the adventure, and do stop for water.

I learned this morning the bishop has put off my move at least back to Jan 15.
