Hey, was wondering if anybody knew anything about G3 boats? I found a great deal for one brand new with yamaha 15hp 4stroke electric start. The boat has ownership warranty, so for as long as i own the boat and new transferable within first 5 years. What do you guys think? Thanks for your opinion and help.

I have not owned one, but fished on one. Very nice boats, equivalent or better than Bass tracker. They are made or part of Yamaha.

Good luck

Sounds like a nice deal, but 7K is a little high for a boat with a 15HP engine on it.

you were better off with that other boat they posted here...16' tracker and 20hp 4stroke Yamy for $3500,,,"this would be a nice..."....i think you can get a brand new g3 for $1-2k more...they are made by yamaha.

Lizzay,

G3's are Good Boats. BlueHunter owns one. You should pm him.
It's quality built!

If you are thinking of dropping like 5 to 6 large on a 14' boat.
Check this one out.. It may be still available

Clean Crestliner 2006 with troll motor and 4 stroke honda / elec start and pwr trim. It looks like it is new! May be able to buy it cheaper!
It's in Nevada... But.. drop off to Vegas and get the boat on the way back:Big Grin:

I know this thread is all about aluminum boats,but you can get a 14' livingston fiberglass catamaran style hull...with a center console and a 25hp Suzuki 4stroke for about $6k brand new at a dealer in newport beach...other than that,try to buy it off of the seller for $4k or $5k...
