my Formula is the first i have owned myself.

grew up on two boats first was a 1972 16ft MFG with a 60hp Evenrude. Second was a 1977 20 ft SEASPRITE with a 400 hp 351 Ford with a TRS drive. The sea sprite was ALL orange :rolleyes: man was it ugly but was so much fun. My old man still talks about that thing:D

I thought I was the only one with a Chrysler bow rider/tri slammer! I had an 85 hp though. I was 19 at the time.

Current boat is a 25 Baja Outlaw for now.

I am a Financial Manager for a school district

My first
 

My first boat was a 10' flat bottm race boat with an open transom. It had to be driven on ones knees. At idle the 'cokpit' would fill up with water. Once you started to give it some gas, the water would drain. It first had a 7.5HP Johnson with tiller throttle. Within the first month, we put a Merc Hurricane with a deadmans throttle on it. My grandparents owned a resort on Bangs Lake in a far-north suburb of Chicago called Wauconda. One of my brothers friends took it out without me knowing it and proceeded to drive it into the seawall, turning it into splinters. The Merc broke off the transom and ended up on the patio. I still have that little motor somewhere...................... I was 10 years old at the time.

i bought a 21 four wins liberator with a 350 omc king cobra when i was 20. she topped up at 53 mph. spent more time rebuilding the drive then running the boat.

A little 13.5 foot boston whaler with a 60 on it.. Then my parents redid it so that it was a center console with a 45 evinrude with full trim. At the age of 12 we were kicking up a hell of a rooster tail trailing my dad's 30 foot Center console with triples..

It was great because we both had the exact same graphics on the side. My parents always had a boat for us up through college. Our last boat being a 36 Concept with twin 300's. Our parents always took care of us.

My favorite was boring dad's 30 spectre with twin 540's. That would scoot up until Blake and I blew a drive. We were on restriction after that.

My first boat was a 13-foot, all-aluminum Feathercraft. It had a wornout 50hp Merc OB. It was small, but we could water ski behind it.

My second boat was a 16-foot, fiberglass, closed-bow, purple, Sidewinder (out of California). It had a 90hp Merc OB.

I am on my fifth boat, a 31-foot Cigarette Bullet with twin HP500's! :D

Clay, my dad had a 15 foot Feathercraft aluminum boat with an Evenrude 75 on it in the early to mid 60"s. You sure could water ski behind it.

1987 24 Sea Ray cabin cruiser. Had to put someone in the front of the cabin just to get on plane:)

Brand new 1802 Bayliner Cuddy with a 90 horse Force. Great boat for the money and it held up great...believe it or not!!:D
