Default Anyone got ProLine info?

Is any one here familiar with ProLine bay boats? This one here is a 2002 22'. Anybody own/rode in one? This boat is pretty clean for its age. What would yall say on price? Has a 200 merc saltwater.

One of my friends has an old proline from the late 80's and it's still in decent shape for being over 20 years old. That's all I know about em I never rode in one

I did some research on the boats pro skiff with a rolled hull (same hull different finish) and from what I gathered they are good boats durable etc. proline was being sued from pathfinder for creating an identical hull. So u pretty much looking at a pathy riding boat. Looks nice

four stroke is a turn off. Otherwise it looks well maintained.

$14K. Get it for less, and you got a deal IMO if everything is good on it.

Nope... Take it for a test run in some sloppy conditions and see how it performs

Good eye Slidell! You sure know your classified ads! Lol that's what I was getting at, wanted some opinions before I said what he wanted. How much you think would be fair?

Good boat, the running surface is basically a Pathfinder.

Remember the lawsuit?

I bet he didn't pay over 27k for it brand new back in 2002. It's a nice boat and looks to be well taken care of, but that price is way too much. There is a 2001 Ranger on the Sportsman for 16k. Lots of 2001 Champions going for 15-17k. I'd have to look up the value on it but I doubt it's worth more than 17-18k.

I agree with the rest. Too much money for a 10 year old boat. Looks nice but no warranty and 10 years old. Maybe 16K max. There is a 24 Nauticac Star at Henderson in Lake Charles for around 21K. Lots of other good deals out there
