Good Day,
I'm looking at buying a 95 202C (the ad says 202C, it is a dual console. What does the C mean? What trims came with this model, i.e, Elite or Tournament?). I currently have a 95 181. I fish primarily with my two boys (7 and 9 years old). We are starting to get a little tight on deck space when fishing. I fish the front with one kid and the other kid takes the back deck.
If I move into a 1995 202, will i notice enough increase in front deck space to make it worth the upgrade? Do I get anymore room on rear deck or in driver/passenger console area for leg room? I hear Mountain Home phrase mentioned alot on here, what does that mean and how do I know if this boat is a Mountain Home boat, and is that a good thing or a bad thing?
Also, will this 202 be the same beam as my 181?
Heres a little info on each boat to help with my requests for info/opinions above:
My Current Setup:
1995 181DC (not elite)
95 Merc 150 xri
Cable Steering (Not hydraulic)
6" Manual Jackplate
Possible Upgrade:
1995 202DC (Its a dual console, not sure if it is an elite or other trim)
1997 Mariner 200 Magnum EFI, new lower unit
6" Manual Jackplate
New Seastar Pro Hyd Steering
New Carpet
New Batteries
No graphs
24V MinnKota Maxxum troller
Follow Up question,
Based on the info for the 202, what price should I be looking at ballpark for the 202?
Thanks!
Austin
