Hoping I make a good choice
 

I'm not new to boating. My wife is. This is going to be my first Mariah. We are looking at a few used ones, pre-sea fox buy out. I've owned rinkers all my life and they have proven to be very reliable and well built. I'm hoping I can say the same about 90's Mariahs. I would love to hear all the information from the owners here so I can make an informed decision as we are buying a used one and then upgrading to new after my wife sees how much fun boating is.

Good luck trying to get your wife's buy-in. I know that when I mention my Mariah to my wife, she walks away and doesn't want to hear any more about it....
But I have owned other boats and my Mariah is far superior to any other manufacturer.

In a lot of other forums, you never hear anyone bad mouthing the first gen mariah's, theyre like owning an old classic car when they where built to last. They where far ahead of their time, and took pride in the build... And their name. The hulls give a nice ride!
