The boat trader will be your best bet. I decided to buy new and bought a 14 foot Caribe C43 with a 40HP Nissan. They aint cheap! Over $6,000 (w/trailer).It's a great boat. However, I would recomend looking used. Also take it from someone who knows, dive gear takes up a lot of room.Also keep mind that the air chambers on inflatables eat up some of the deck space. The 14 footer handles two divers with four tanks. Any more than that would'nt be comfortable --the 40HP is plenty.
