Dear members, I live on the Treasure Coast (Mid-east coast) of Florida and I am looking into buying my 1st boat. I am 32 and have little to moderate experience with boating. I have two younger children under 10 years old and don't have very much money to work with. (Less than 8K) I would like to respectfully request some advice on what to stay away from, to look for, what brands are the best for the money, etc. The more information the better. I would be most appreciative if anyone can offer some insight. I'd prefer a center console but am open to any and all advice. Please help if you would be so kind. My family and I thank you. Additional info: Will trailer, saltwater fishing, prefer outboard, can do minor maintenence. Size dependent on deal with limited budget-prefer 17-26', offshore mostly, tow vehicle: Ram 1500 V8 4.7 L 4x2 Please let me know if I have ommitted any other important info. Thanks! Be safe and well!
