A matter of checking on the net, the best purchase is when you find a needy for cash desperate boater...

Happy Boating

Avon is a good reputed hypalon made quality boat. Persinally don't like wooden floors nor too sharp bow models.

Avon Sea Rider owner here. I have a 4m and i love it. Its a very stable boat in rough water and is extremely stable with the water keel filled off plane. My brother and i both took two sea riders across 40 miles of ocean last weekend with no problems.

All the power to you if you can find one for the price you are willing to pay. Realistically I think you are going to need to pay a lot more for one. You can use ebay's completed auctions for a search for a rough idea of what they sell for. Then if purchasing in CA remember everything is worth more here, call it a CA tax.
