Title: Sea Fox????
Post by: sea nymph on February 24, 2008, 02:18:08 PM
Does anyone have any input on the quality and functionality of Sea Fox boats?  I'm not in the market to replace my boat, but a pretty good deal came up on a used Sea Fox 185 DC that peaked my interest.  My use is for bay and river fishing.  Just like housing, it's becoming a buyers market!

They have a VERY bad reputation. DO a search on the hulltruth.com to see what I mean.

I have no experience with one. Only going by what I have read.

I have seen no other boat with such a widespread bad rep.

I have seen others say they never had a problem with theirs, but I would certainly suggest going to the thehulttruth and checking it out.

Thanks!  I did read quite a few bad reports on them, especially 2002 and earlier.  The more info. the better!

Except don't ask any questions there, and don't even post if you don't own a Regulator or Contender.  Oh, and definitely don't post if you have an E-tec, or a Panga, or haven't bought an 'anchor.'

Ugh.  The site is very informative, but the crowd can get to you quickly.
