Default Price Check on Hydra-Sports 2390 Vector

New to this site so if this is not an appropriate thing to do, please let me know. Just purchased a 2002 Hydra-Sports Vector 24' CC with a single Yamaha 225 four stroke (600 hrs). Furuno fishfinder, JRC Radar, Garmin GPS, and Depth Raider speed and temp. Has 2 Vector electric downriggers and a total of 14 vecor rod holders. Outriggers also. Fresh water boat with dual axle trailer. Very good condition, seems like a very solid boat. Paid 29k. How does that price seem??? Thanks.

Seems a little late to be worrying about what you paid for the boat. Hydra Sport makes a good ride, enjoy it, I hope you have many years of trouble free boating...Welcome aboard..

It may be sufficient in the fresh water, but that four stroke 225 will not be enough engine in the ocean. Low end torque is too low to get the heavy boat on plane against bigger seas with a heavy load. I had a 225 FICHT and couldn't get it on plane when fully loaded without full tabs.

Seems like you should have asked that question before you bought the boat.
