Boats on Used Victoria and Other Areas

If you have access to Aluminum Boats NW on Facebook, there is a freaking beautiful 2012 Cope Winter Harbour 23 for $50,000 US with trailer. Un-real. I cannot share as it is a private group but you can still see it as a non member. Run, don't walk.

I’m with Scott. 90 is acceptable but to get anywhere that’s not within a couple of km’s from the launch I’d prefer a 115-140. Lower RPM = Work less hard and less fuel burn for higher speed. You’d need to run a 60 at full throttle which tends to wear out motors faster.
 
Your not going to get a modern 4 stroke in 115-140hp on a 17 hourston for 7k lol. Compare apples to apples it’s a good package for under 10k.

under powered Is subjective I guess but trust the 60 is enough for that boat. Those Yamaha are bulletproof proof I’ve run mine at 4,500 rpm everywhere for the last 10 years no issues.

Agreed. Black Gold Lodge uses that boat with a 50, Shearwater uses that boat with 50 and 60 Yamaha four stroke. They are closer to the fishing grounds but they work well. Great for trolling, so quiet compared to a whining 9.9 kicker.

You win this round.
