that sounds like a pretty good price. If you do go on sea trial, make sure to find rougher water and put it to the test! I would fill every livewell up and try to get 4 ppl in the boat to really check out power, because I'm sure they will have minimum fuel in the boat and only one battery. On a 22ft boat I know I would have a 36volt trolling motor so just the batteries would be about 180lbs, 2 icechests with ice/fish would be another 150lbs easy especially if they are full of fish. And on a 22ft boat it would be easy to bring 4-5 ppl fishing, so you can really load it down. We bring 4 adults in our 19ft all the time. Goodluck and hope you find what you are looking for! Btw I saw a bx22 the other day and that is a FINE boat!!
