would this be a good boat? My friend I fish with is sponsered by gambler and gets a new one every year. I'm in love with them, but my budget is 5k. I have never owned a boat before. I live and fish in the Mississippi river. I spoke with the mechanic who confirmed all the work on the engine. Here is the link.
