Fully undersatnd that. Somtimes spending a litle extra on the front end will save you $ in the long run. Multiple things to think about here. When I built mine I looked at it from all angles and wanted to make sure I'd be able to sell it quickly if need be (even during the winter) and be able to keep it long term. My Brother-In-law has a 2006 brand X with a 250 on it. even today he has no wants of buying another boat. Prior to this one, he had 4 different boats in 3 season, all becuse he could not find one that suited his family. Started with a v-hull then to a two toon with a 115 then a deck boat, and finally his 250. I'm not saying you need the biggest motor, but go with something you will appreciate long term. Below is Kaydano's first post. Not how he already regrets his decision and later corrects it, but pays for it.
As I stated I'm not pushing you to get the biggest motor possible. Just sharing that you can spend a few extra $'s now to avoid spending a lot more later. This goes for two toon vs sps vs, and even elips. It all depends on how you intend to use the boat.
Give us an idea here of how you plan to use the boat, what you may have had in the past and what you may expect from this boat. There's a ton of information on this site and plenty of guys/gals to offer information who have been in your shoes. In the end we just hope to get you in a boat that you will not have any regrets with and can fit the budget. Be prepared for the honest truth, but be certain it's only in your best interest!!
Looking at buying a 2017 Bennington 22 ssx with a 115 hp Yamaha. Any advise on this purchase? Is the motor large enough for the boat? Any pricing gouge would be much appreciated. Thank you
As has been said by many, it really depends on what you're going to do with the boat.
