These boats will cost you 10x to get them to working condition...
All boats seem to require more money to maintain them than the original purchase price.
I am actually thinking about buying a used boat...
Sail or power?
Power. I owned a power boat before, 21 foot.
Cigarette boat (fun) or cabin cruiser (darned family tub)? g
In addition to the previous picture...
It was a very fun boat. Even though it was very heavy, it could go 35
MPH in water, it had a nice Mercruiser 302 inboard/outboard etc.

35 mph? Thats pretty damned slow for a power boat.
If that is indeed Iggy's model, that's a Celebrity Crownline deep-V.
Deep-V hulls require a lot of power to go fast but they ride smooth.
A true deep-V is 20 degrees at the transom, but the Crownline was
probably less than that. Still, those straked V hulls need a lot of
power.
They were popular out here until fuel prices took off. They use a
*lot* of gas.
