gnm2140,
I have a '02 150Fish that has been a fantastic purchase to date
. It is the single console versus dual or center you are looking at but I actually felt it gave me more room to fish and move around the boat. I keep mine on the trailer and love the fact that there is so little to maintain and cleaning is easy (washdown).
Too bad you are so far away...mine is up for sale due to house construction costs.
I think the price is a little steep from the dealer but it depends on what is included. I purchased my boat in '03 as a new '02 model with a Yamaha 50 2 stroke for the same money as you are talking. I added a fish finder and Minn Kota 55AP (autopilot model) trolling motor after purchase.
Overall, very happy with the boat and hate to sell it. I had some interest but to be honest it is hard to sell something you don't really want to see go. I only have about 20 hours on the boat but have had zero problems.
