[quote=yellowhulls17]Good luck on finding an H18, took me months to find a deal.
Got to drive 500 miles round trip to Wisconsin for mine.
Got it for 300$ but it needed (needs) help with replacing gear. Fortunately, it was a case a solid boat, but owners who frequently lost stuff.
$3500 sounds extremely expensive for a 1980 boat. I would keep searching for something cheaper, because you will inevitably have to replace things anyways.
Make sure to check the back of the transoms on the H18s, that is usually the weakest section of hulls.
If you aren't dead-set on an H18, although a great boat, look at some Nacras too, you could pick up a late 80s/early 90s boat for a couple grand.[/quote]
