So... my motor warranty is running out. I like having the outboard under warranty. This has had me looking at a new RT and thinking of trading...
I want to stay with the RT188. It suits me fine and is a great boat to fish from....it does smallish water and bigger water both. I really like the boat ----- I am just getting the itch to trade for a new boat...
So, I look at them and shop and look at pricing. I cannot believe what they are costing now. A new one fairly loaded with goodies is pushing $40,000. Not quite 40 but pushing it. Maybe even over that when you figure taxes and all that. I mean... FORTY THOUSAND DOLLARS FOR AN ALUMINUM RT ?????
I am stopping even shopping or looking. I will gamble on the motor and stuff and I have it like I want it. My itch for a new boat has stopped itching.
