Looking to purchase a 1999 GW 209 w/ 2018 Yamaha 200 (four stroke) for 25k this week. Also includes a 2018 dual axle trailer, boat has t top, and Garmin chart plotter. I’ve never owned a GW so I’m looking to hear people’s opinion on purchasing this boat. Obviously no issues with the outboard, but what are people’s thoughts on the 20 year old hull at this price point? Boat appears to be in pretty good condition and I do plan on having it surveyed before taking possession. Thanks everyone.

its a gamble, but sometimes a new boat can be one too. if the transom, stingers and decks are solid and you get a good survey, should be ok.
