A Formula 357SR1, twin 440hp with TRS outdrives. I bought it with almost no hours on it. I was 31 years old. I figured I would jump in with both feet for the first boat.

Really wanna know? First boat (if you can call it a boat) was a "Sportyak" when I was about 12 . It's basically a plastic rowboat . Next boat was a salebot (Minifish) at 13. Got out of boats until age 26; bought a new 17' Checkmate Sportfire . Now own a 22' Baja Hammer and CAN'T WAIT FOR WARM WEATHER!

OK, well my first boat was a 1969 15ft DUO made in Indiana I think??? 50HP merc 800 doallars. was 15 years old... cut lawns and deliverd papers top get it. Was the most fun of all the boats. I have never ran aground or hurt the Engine or prop with it. Then 1982 17 Stingray 120 IO. traded in on 23 Powerquest. Nice and soild boat..burns more gas than the old duo.
