Hello folks.

Looking to get into my second boat. First was a 40’ 1987 Hatteras and now we want to downsize to more recent and manageable sizes but not sure on brands.

Budget is max mid $30s Age minimum is 2000 and newer Size is max at 26ft min at 22ft Style is center console/walkaround outboard. Usage is inter coastal and maybe Gulf of Mexico but not crazy offshore

So after shopping around for a bit, I’m wondering what are considered good mid-tier boat brands

So far I’ve saved Hydra Sports Sailfish Cobia Pro-Line Striper Mako

Grady’s and Whalers tend to be fairly beaten up in that price and age range

Any thoughts would be awesome. Shopping now with maybe post season buying in mind.
