Okay, no more excuses – if you can afford to buy a new car, you can afford to buy a new fishing boat. It might not be the biggest nor the fanciest boat in the world and it certainly won’t be a bluewater powerhouse like a Contender 30 ST or a Scout 430 LXF, but for the average price of a Chevy Cruze you could be cruising atop the waves instead of cruising down the highway.

Years from now they’ll thank you.
