Charles Dickens once famously remarked, "it was the best of times, it was the worst of times." Now anytime I'm driving around looking at boats, believe me, it's the best of times for me, but the famous line by Mr. Dickens here relates to prices. We were lucky enough to look at 5 boats on this May Spring day in Eastern Long Island. The cheapest was a just under $5k classic Mako walk-around. The most expensive was a $224K Jupiter 34 with 3 other boats mixed in for fun.
Which would you pick and why?

Thank you soooooooooo much! I just love these videos. In 62 now and bought my first boat at the age oh 15 ( a 16ft ) fiberglass runabouts. I’ve own countless number of boats over the years. As we all know they all have there good and their not so good😃. If you know you know😅 I really appreciate your videos and look forward to the upcoming season with your new boat and all those videos!! Thanks again!!❤️🙏

I love these videos. When I see a boat for sale, I HAVE to look. It’s a compulsion.

I worked at POE about 7 years ago and have moved that Jupiter around, both with the forklift and in the water. Cool boat for sure.

Kevlar hull is what you were looking for on the HS 2450. Love those boats. And yes, my understanding is that Aquasport does use their hull design now but have heard fit/finish is not what HS used to be.

It is always interesting to see the boats and what people think they are worth

I fished the Baltimore canyon on a 38 Jupiter, twin f350's, a few years ago. Sweet Boat!! The boat had plenty of room and rode great.

Hey John, what transducer did you go with. I did 2 on my new boat. B175HW and B175M, great set up. Boat came with a b150 that I removed and 12 Garmin screens. Good luck with your new boat

@jiggingjerks 5 месяцев назад

I did a single B175H

That mako would be a good project. New yammie or zuk 200 , gas tank , electronics. Probably $30k, but good all around rig for North fork fishing

The last boat looked decent but upholstery is expensive as I found out. I’m also a cautious person so new tires right off the bat. Just pointing out the areas where I’d negotiate.

@ronsuda7555 5 месяцев назад

Like the hydra sport I have a 2003 250 hpdi had some issues with ethanol in beginning once i got the filters down pat .engine runs like a beast and very economical. Upholstery can get done by copy cat marine Upholstery in Florida by mail I did mine that way very budget friendly.some elbow grease and know how u got a great boat.would like to know hours and year of engine and compression first .sounds like price is negotiable a plus also.👍

We might have passed each other on the road, there’s a center console at Pier Ave and a couple more east of Youngs. How’s Chris doing,🙏🏻 thanks.

Any opinion about the older 2002ish trophy cc boats?

@jiggingjerks 11 дней назад

Built by Bayliner. Having said that, my friend has one and loves it and it's held up great for him

@jasinc19 11 дней назад

@@jiggingjerks I have one and it's a really great boat for its age after a repower. It's actually super-seaworthy and the rough water is down here in Chesapeake Bay Virginia Beach. Anyways keep up the great content. Thank you
