I have an early 90's Princecraft 196 that I bought a couple of years ago. It's a riveted hull and still holds water out like a fishes butt.Quote:

There is a reason why they are cheap to buy......you get what you pay forQuote:

I just couldn't bring myself to buy a Tracker(Cracker) or Legend.
Choosing a reliable, high-quality boat is very difficult. I support those who say that it is not worth buying a boat with a riveted hull. This can result in a lot of repairs and not the most pleasant situations. If I had the money to buy a boat , I wouldn 't buy such an inconvenient one . Although I haven't bought my own boat yet. I prefer to rent from miami boat rental because I can't afford to keep it and maintain it properly technically. By the way, renting is a very convenient option in such a situation.
