I am starting to look for our future family boat. Preferably a 98-2003 sundancer between 290 and 340. I will be boating in Cayuga lake out of Ithaca NY.
First question, should i avoid salt water boats? i have read a few posts on this site about it but they were from 8 plus years ago. The reason i am asking is because i see a lot of boats in along the east coast that have great prices compared to buying the same boat in the great lakes. I am aware that it comes down to how well the boat is maintained and any boat i am considering will have a full survey done. Please share your thoughts on this.
Second Question, Boat shipping prices. What kind prices per mile should i expect on a 340 or a 290?
Thanks for all of your help.
