Fishing boat advice

[CHSD]

A guy near me is selling a 2006 tracker 175. Seems like a decent deal, only kicker is it has this big dent in it. Is this something that is safe to go out on the water on and not worry about? Am I an idiot for thinking about this with the damage.

I would appreciate any advice you might have. Currently using a 1982 lund, it gets tight with my wife and kids on there, so looking to get a bigger boat.

Bad placement for a dent.

I’d pass unless the deal was so good I could have it professionally repaired and still be money ahead.

As long as it doesn't leak there, nothing is damaged internally, and you get a great deal I'd go for it. Basically cosmetics. You're not going to be that worried about it affecting maneuverability?
