If you want a certain size boat/motor and the newer isnt giving you what you really want than I would go older so your getting the overall specs you want in a boat. I sold my last boat with no electronics or any add-ons, becuase I wanted to keep them for my next boat. but like I told the buyer, electronics and all the other fancy stuff can always be added afterwards, I'd rather have the boat I want now and add the rest later. So, if your ok with smaller, really want newer, don't mind adding things later and can afford it, then go newer. if you want more of a deal, in terms of a boat with optional accessories, which gives you more of what you ideally want upfront, and it's the specs your looking for, then go with older.
