I hate to say this but I think we're screwed, just to many boats for sale, jobs tight, money hard to get and the one big factor, the price of gas. One saving grace, mine is paid for but it still costs me 850 a year just for insurance, not counting the deprecation.

Thanks for all the opinions. The ride of ours is just going to sit in the storage unit all summer. There is no way I am paying the gas prices this year. Sure hope it will go down in 09.

I listed mine for a bigger boat (370SS Formula or 38EC Fountain). Mine is paid for too so I'll just keep using it until it sells. Heading out Friday morning for a 3 day trip to Harborfest in Norfolk VA (about 200 gallons by trips end)
This trip will cost me about $200 more than it cost last year.....I'll complain, but I'm starting to pack the boat tonight!!!!

Good to see someone with a positive attitude here. It's going to cost all of us a little more this year, but WTF, if you're lucky enough to have one of these toys you should use it. For most of us it's a big part of what we do, so take some shorter trips, skip one for the season, pack some food and skip the resturant, but get out there and spend some time on the water.
Have a great trip!!!

My biggest complaint is that some of my buddies are making big boat payments. They aren't willing to spend the gas money for some of our regular trips so it leaves me to go by myself....or not at all.
