you might check with 3 rivers marine in woodinville. i think thats where choclab nailed a great deal on his new boat. they have a website and usually a pretty good selection of used boats too. i have 3 or 4 friends who have bought boats there with good experiences all around.
also look at craigslist...there's always a deal to be had there if you know what to look for.

Ya.....go talk to Joey at 3rivers. He's a good guy and could get you set up and probably even get you on some birds. I am very happy with my 06 Alumacraft.

What size of water do you hunt? Usually bigger boat helps in big water.

Any where around Olympia to get my hands on a 12-14 ft John Boat. New or used but I know Redhead/basspro sells them new for around 550$. I mean from a dealer... it might be a month or so.

If you want a little John boat go to Sportsmans Warehouse. They have a few for sale.
