Only you can decide if you need/want a Grand Banks quality boat versus a more economical one similar to a Marine Trader or Albin. Nothing wrong with a more economical boat. That is why they make Mercedes and also Fords. First thing I would do is establish your budget and then look within it. Keep in mind that if you have $80K to spend don’t spend all of it on buying the boat. I would keep 20 to 30% in reserve for fixing up the boat and adding equipment that you must have. Good luck and have fun.
