Anyone in the Tampa Bay area?

[Dave Abrahamson]

Believe it or not I just got the OK from my wife,(God bless her!), to look for a new(er) boat!! She wants the old beater out of the yard. My question is where should I begin...lots of boat dealers on US 19 (I'm in Pinellas County) or should I check out the marinas, maybe Boat Trader Magazine?? I would like to keep it under $10/12,000. Also, I don't think I want new but a newer model would be nice. 17 to 20 foot Center Console would be ideal but I'm not against a bigger dual console. Anyone have any tips on good dealers in the area they trust?<br /><br />I know I ask a lot of questions but I'm really excited about this!!<br /><br />Thanks for any and all responses.<br /><br />Dave
