Hey everyone. After owning a tracker fishing boat we decided to start looking for a boat more comforatable for 4 or 6 people to cruise around in. I kept a look out for most of the summer and finally found a 96 190 Horizon with a 5.0 liter a couple weeks ago. It's in fantastic condition inside and out with credit going to the two previous owners who always kept it inside. It also came with a wake board tower and a few other goodies. Not being familiar with pleasure boats I was lucky to have a good friend that is a boat mechanic go with me on a test drive. He looked at several things I wouldn't have thought to look at and the boat passed is inspection with flying colors. In fact he said if I didn't buy the boat to let him know cause he would buy it. Now I just want to put a few hours on it before it gets winterized for the year. I will be a long winter I guess waiting for a weekend to take it out again.

Congratulations, and welcome to the forum. Sounds like you found a nice boat. Where will you use it?

Yep, my bass tracker was a great fishing boat, I'll miss it. We are taking the new boat out this afternoon for it's maiden voyage, with us anyway. Kinda want to put at least 3 hours on it and learn the boat a bit. Then I'll probably get it serviced and put away for the year. Weekends are busy and bowhunting is just around the corner. Somethings got to give.

Yep...I will have one more lake trip before winterizing and then its time to fill the freezer with venison.
