I always tell people buy the biggest that you can afford because it won't take you long before you get tired of the smaller boat and want a bigger one.. 2'itis syndrome we all have had it!!!:lolhit: You can't have too much boat on Lake Erie... shes snotty at times, I have yet to be held back by waves, in the Baja or the Cig, then again, i am a tad nuts too... |
What if you have 9 or 14 foot itis?
If he is moving up from a 20' proline... a 280 would be a monster. |

Thats how I like to roll! Go out whenever possible, weekend warrior?? I had the Pro-Line in some 5-6s yikes, I wouldn't have went out in anything much worse.
its not that hard to operate a 32+ footer by yourself too much, its all about getting used to it.. |

I am more worried about tight docking than anything, I can do everything else easy, I would just leave lines tied to the bow at all times, no fricken way I would walk out there when no one is at the wheel, well at least to for a while, just too many risks IMO. I have operated a 28 on my own, thats the biggest though.
http://kalamazoo.craigslist.org/boa/3549097538.html It's just a hair bigger than a 29OL with alot more cockpit space. |
