Looking to buy my first boat! Looking for a 19 to 20' mako/kenner type hull no older than a 2005. Any suggestions or advice.

My .02
I run a 19' Blue Wave and love it. Not getting a 22' boat is my only regret. The 19' bottoms out between open bay swell that most 22' and longer boats just skim across.
No matter what you decide on, it will need a FWE sticker or two.

If your going to cross a lot of open bays, get a 22' if you can, but for a starter boat a 19' will still get you out there. My first boat was a 16' and hated it real quick when I was out in the middle of the bay when the winds kicked up, 10 minute ride out, 2 hour ride back in.Today is a new day!!

I am actually thinking of selling my boat. It is a 19' Nitro which is actually a Kenner Hull. It has a 125 Merc on it and runs like a top. Unlike the guys on here I am actually looking for a little smaller boat. Let me know if you are interested.

Thanks guys I will look around anyone know where to look for such a boat in south Texas? I have been doing some research and from what I have learned don't underpower the boat. So what would be underpowered for a 19 to 20ft Mako and what should I be looking for when I find such a boat?
