the reason I love my little boat so much was because the cheapest one on the floor was $82,000. (and that doesn't include the cost of the divorce were I to purchase one)

We all gotta get into a new boat some time. Maybe in 19 years, I will be laughing at the price tag... who knows? I will guarantee you though, this boat will be sitting in the garage no matter if I buy another new MC or not... this one has alot of sentimental value already in the 10 months and 20 days I have owned it!

To me, this forum is about love of inboard boats. It is about the sharing of information and, on a good day, some humor. It is not about post count, brand of boat, or any other superfluous labels that lend themselves to a false sense of superiority. Please, respect one another, try to pass on accurate information, and keep your eye on the ball.

I just turned 80 hours weekend before last. This summer I am expecting to put less than 20 on it, due to the sale of my parent's lakehouse and the minimal use it gets used for during sunrise ski runs at the river. On that note, I expect my brother boat to run about 150 hours this season, since he only did about 30 last year.
