thanks for all the high dollars proposition guys, but if you look at my avatar, chances are for the moment I can't afford a 250k plus boat... I guess I'll have to see a couple before taking decision. Sonic, Formula, BT, Nortech are some name I wish to compare... I'll see !

divorce? more expensive than buying a boat so let's keep it that way!

I know ,,,it was realy ment as a joke . SORRY

But ,,u have a formula ,,and i know they make daycruisers,,but i did not know that a sonic or BT has one ?!

If your looking for an older afforadble model ,that is slow ,,max maybe 22-25 MPH but 10+ feet wide i know one in nice condition for less then 40 K ,,ITS LIKE A CONDO !!!!

I'm sorry. i read the first few posts on this thread and have to call BS. This site is called Offshore Only. . . not "boats i would like to take offshore and sink."

My wife has been banging my ear for years about our next big dollar boat purchase has to have a cabin so she feels like she's at home. I told her if she wants to feel like she's at home she can clean it on her hands and knees while I'm at the f'n bar.

Sack up boys. if your priorities in boat selection don't start with 1) horse power 2) manufacturer 3) running gear 3) stereo 4) headsets (with optional microphone gain for spouse) 5) is the speed significantly over 100 MPH and, most importantly, how many Claymaters will it hold. . . you like the snuggly comfort of hairy, overweight men and dancing to Manilow while secretly wear cardigans.

Of course, you are welcome to own a 150+' yacht that can hold said go-fast boat in it's hold.

"Excuse me while I whip this out."

But this site cannot get filled with grabled jargon about slow-moving channel blockers. SERIOUSLY!
