I’m in the middle of a deal to buy a 2008 20x2 from out of state. I’ve seen pictures, talked to the dealership, and put down a deposit for them to hold it for me. I go down at the end of the week to look it over and make the final decision whether or not to purchase. The pics look good minus some wear and tear, which is to be expected on a 13 year old boat. While I’m fairly experienced with bass boats since I was practically raised on my dad’s, this will be my first one.
My question to you all is: Can you all recommend things for me to inspect when I get to see the boat in person? Any deal breakers that I should be aware of for this model specifically? For example, I was doing some research on a Skeeter ZX 225 and found that several of them had a problem with fiberglass cracking and chipping at the base of the jackplate. Is there anything like that out there for the 20x2?
Also, any general advice for inspecting the boat or for Triton ownership would be appreciated. I really hope it looks as good in person as it does in the pics so I can finally get my own boat.
