If you don't know what you're doing, you can easily get your butt burned when buying a used boat.
What is considered high hours on an outboard? Just getting started.
Got 5 jigs in loved em so much ordered 5 more
Got to remember that Bass Boats are not driven by Little Old ladies going to church. They get the snot run out of them for the most part. Going over the engine and hull with a thorough inspection will save you from major headaches down the road. Electronics and trolling motors are considered expendable items these days. Walk away from any boat that has a rats nest of wiring under the dash or back in the battery compartment. A cheaply priced high end rig most likely has issues, do not take the sellers word for a second.
Good video!
More on your jigs!!

Really good, useful advice – thanks!
Great advice, thanks… who makes the best aluminum bass boat today?
Yea I have to take it out on the water before I ever buy it.
So glad you made this video. I appreciate it .
this is good advice, but maybe you should have gone to a boat yard and shown what to look for.
Beware of old fiberglass hulls with transoms made by sandwiching plywood between two layers of fiberglass. I have a 1991 Skeeter SD80 where the plywood is completely gone, and the only parts of the original transom are the inner and outer layers of fiberglass. How to test: tilt the motor all the way up, grab the skeg and pull up and push down as hard as you can several times. If there is any flexing of the transom it is a good sign that plywood has been compromised. Another indicator is brown stains lines below one or more of the thru-hulls fittings on the transom below the motor mount. If it flexes, then walk away and don't look back, repairing a transom is very labor intensive and very expensive undertaking.
and pay close attention to where the kill switch is 🙂
Compression tester and a moisture meter. Everything else is visual
This is a great vid.
After watching these tournament angler videos and how abusive they are on their equipment, there’s zero chance I’d ever buy a tournament boat.
*You can jeep driving, to the nearest safe place to replace the tire.
Great Advice!!!
Need look at the hitch. People jackknife the boat and bend to hitch.
