Good boats

Ok so I'm in the market for a starter boat. 8k is my limit. I know my options are limited to late 80s early 90s direct drives and I am ok with that. I want an open bow with a tower but that's a lot to ask for with my budget but they exist. I'll take an open bow without a tower but I'm not interested in a closed bow unless it has a tower. With that said I have been looking at Tiges malibus sangers moombas correct crafts master crafts. But I'm new to this world and don't want to miss looking at all of them. Are their any other quality brands I should keep an eye out for? Thanks in advance
