There are 2 nice 30' Superboats in the classifieds.
What is your critereia for a boat? Do you want to overnight, 8' beam or 7, bells and whistles or Plain Jane, full cabin or bare. Lots of good boats out there but you need to narrow them down according to what you want.

thanks guys for the reply...i am not worried about upkeep, insurance or gas... i have 7 new franchise stores (chevy, gmc, cadillac, pont, buick, honda toyota) most of my techs have a lot of hi-po toys, an insurance agency and an oil/gas distribution center. i get everything at a discount i have been looking at some fountains...let me tell you my problem, the area that i run in is full of open bows and cruisers, not many power boats to choose from. i will have to travel to get my hands on something different.

You want single or twin screw?
Do you want a stand up bolster boat, or sit down?
And yes, you will have to travel to get something different.
