HAHAHAHA....that had to be one of the best post's so far this year.... We did the cruiser thing too...bought the wife a 280 Sundancer a couple of years ago to keep her happy.... All I have to do is keep it clean and stocked up...

It worked great for me I didn't hear a peep out of her when I bought some new Eddie Young motors last year for mine....although she does make a few snide comments about my "girlfriend" from time to time....lol

Has this ever happened to you???

Here's the scenario.....

You stop at a red light in your brightly painted, loud, hot rod Mustang GT or Camaro - girlfriend in the passenger seat. A Saab turbo pulls up next to you with a yuppie driver, window up and AC running. He gives you the eye just before the light turns green...You figure this will be easy and you let the yuppie jump you out of the gate. Then as he's pulling you hard through second gear you grind the crap out of third while sweating bullets trying to get around the guy. Finally you barely pull ahead just before you get to the next light. Then, you make up some mechanical BS story to your girlfriend on why you didn't blow his azz clean off the road.

My dad was riding on the back seat that day on the poker run and he's 260#
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I can't believe the bow lift on that thing, did he have surface drives?

Part of the reason I like the idea of a cruiser this year is I hope I won't have to wrench on it.....that one looks like it requires some wrenching

I thought this one would be great for Florida all the way up here. Close to 60 mph with twins, it's a bowrider, cockpit galley, pretty large cabin.

The last two years, some of these builders have done some serious rethinking. I love the cockpit galley, and what they done for cabin room.

She is not a big fan either, and no disrepect but I see you have a 26 outlaw in you profile. Not sure if you still have that, but for us that size go fast is our all time least favorite boat. No room and they don't stay in the water. Have been down that road twice.
