I paid 3200 for the hull...the trailer was junk and the motor was beat.
by the time it was said and done, we put around 15,000 in to it.
It's 20 and a 115 is plenty motor when proped.
A 225 will push a 24 with more then enough power. I've got a buddy thats running a 225 honda on a 24. We've been 30 miles out many times on it and it'll take some nasty water.
If your looking one, keep an eye on Eastern NC criagslist, plenty of crab boats fixin to go up for sale.
