I messaged him. I think the Starcraft might have a better hull, although I've never seen that model of sea nymph in person before.

 

 

I have an 87 sea nymph... Bulletproof hull. I think that one listed is well worth a look.

 

It is a heck of a deal. You can do a lot with other with 3k play money

go to page 3 I have 20sea OX in your price rang

 I already have a 22 Starcraft Bluewater. I used to have a 86 191 Islander and want to go back to a lighter boat.

My buddy has a sylvan, the ride can be very "rough."

That's not really a very informative statement. These boats are light weight aluminum boats: easy to tow ,easy on gas, and relatively inexpensive when they are a bit older. They don't crush a big rolling sea like a heavy glass boat but as long as you are prudent they are very comfortable under normal conditions. I have had one for over 10 years and fish a lot.

A set of trolling bags off the bow pulls them right down in and makes them much more fish able in big water

Sorry what I meant by that was the sylvans share the same basic hull has the 21ft Islander which is more of a modified v hull. On my home waters of the central basin of Erie thats not the optimal hull design on our erie chop.

I've got sandbags in the nose of mine favoring the side w/o the kicker. Works wonders in the same way and helps get out of the hole too.

Looking for a good condition 19 or 22ft Islander. Looking to spend $5000-6000. Searched craigslist but not finding anything.

 

Found these while looking for a friend who is in the market. Figured I would pass em along since I have no relationship with any of these sellers. Their out there. Good Luck in your search.
