Howdy Y'all. New here and to bass boats. Just bought my first boat last month. As the title says, its '77 Hydra-Sport 178VEE. To be honest with you, i bought it because it was in my price range and so far, she has not let me down. With that said, who else here runs an old lady across the water like grandam going to bingo night? Any helpful advice on what to look out for and/or keep an eye because of age. Again, I have never owned a boat other than a little 14 John boat some years back.
