In Southeast US, buy boat w/o motor?

you do get a discount when you buy them both as a package but I would be if you were to call around to some boat dealerships in the area, somebody would be willing to work with you. I am guessing you still may not get it for 10k but maybe something like 12k. You could try one of the larger chains, like B Pro Shop. They tend to have them separate anyway. I like the idea of getting one a couple of years old as well
