WTB: small fiberglass handtroller in SE AK
I have a hand troll permit, and I'm looking for a boat to fish this summer. I don't have much more to spend than 10k. I'd be willing to consider an open skiff, but something with a small cabin is preferred. I'm hoping for a boat that is turn-key (or close to it), and gurdies would definitely be a plus. I'm in Juneau, and there aren't many trollers for sale around here. If you have a boat or know of one that's available, then I'd certainly appreciate it. Pictures are always a help.
Thanks very much,
Ben

There are a couple of boats in Craig for well under ten thousand, but they are older wooden boats. I don't know if that helps. If you want, I can find out more about them and post photos. I know that one of them actually doesn't look to bad for the price. It would for sure beat out an open skiff.

Abundance,
I wouldn't necessarily say no to a wooden boat. The truth is, I just don't know much about them, and I'm worried about waking up in the water. That said, I realize that there are lots of guys who love them and catch lots of fish.
I'd certainly appreciate any leads, especially if you think one seems like a good deal, but please don't trouble yourself too much. Thanks again, and feel free to message me also.
