Agree, it is so worth it when they are right.... the fun is like nothing else..
Your boat is the original and real deal go any were monster. This sport eats us up, we are glutens for punishment. Long hours a lot of work, time spent on OSO, broken parts, upgrades and lots of $$$$$$$$$. In the end it comes down to those moments we launch our boats and run them. That one moment while you are running and you think "This is perfect" euphoria. Do what you need to do sell or not sell. Do keep in mind if you do sell. Eventually be back for more pain with another boat. Most of us want a faster and nicer boat. That is why we go thru this endless cycle. Its hard to just settle Sit down and think it thru and weigh all options going forward. Hard to replace or rebuild too what you have now accomplished. Put her away for a year without expense is an option.

Don't sell, take a year off if you have to. Park it in the sun, drink a few beers, you won't get your money back out of it anyway. Get a sign for your boat dash that's says" Boost costs money, how much do I want to spend today?" And take it easy on the equipment for a summer and save some$$

These things are money sucking leaches. Keep it and you feel the need to keep up with it. Run it at the risk of costing $5k+ on any given day. To sell it you have a list of To Do's before you feel prepared.
It took me finding something else I wanted worse before I could part with my 40 that had endless money and time in it.
Good luck with the decision. My advise is to do what's best for the family.
