Sure, I wanna be one of the big dog's on the lake, but to what end?? I just want me and my wife to be able to have a good time on the water. She wants a little comfort and quarters, I want a little speed. I'll never be the biggest or fastest, but I want to be noticed at least a little. It seems that many people here had more fun with previous "smaller"boats than what they are currently running. I don't want my boat to become an albatross around my neck, I want something that is easy to run, easy on the wallet(if that is possible...) I'm leaning towards the Formula or Older Cig 28SS. I've even found a few boats identicle to my old Baja that I've considered. Yet I find myself wanting larger all the time. :hothead: |
Re: Favorite Boat you've owned?
Tough choice, as I've had a few great boats. The 1994 40' Hustler w/triple Blackhawks was the best just due to its enormity and rough sea capability.
Had smaller boats that were faster, but the trips are something special. |

I have the Formula you need. I hate to let her go, but we don't use it much since we moved. It will turn heads, easy to launch and trailer, not too rough on the wallet.

Re: Favorite Boat you've owned?
First boat I bought was a 1963 Glasspar G-3 with 100 Merc.This year I found one just like it,totally restored. All it needed was an old 100 Merc. I found one and have come full circle 43 years later.Runs 59 mph and runs all afternoon on a 6 gallon fuel tank :drink: Light enough to store on a PWC lift. Karen thinks I'm nuts but sometimes it's good to relive the old days :p

Easy to trailer, man handle, drive (no screwing with tabs and drives every time you go to get on plane) easy on gas, stays on plane at a low speed, (kinda miss just the slow put puts )and always got compliments on it.
