Young Owners
 

Guys out there with 20ft+ boats in their early 20's? I shocked some friends and boat owners when I made good on my threat to get one, a 1981 Formula 233LS Thunderbird. What else do you guys have???

i had a donzi 18 when i was 16....back when LOTO had a bit less traffic....loved it

At 20 I had a 29 Fountain. 22 I bought a 35 fountain, 24 I bought my first Black Thunder 43, then a couple others... :lolhit:

Now Im 27 and have a different Black Thunder but still love boating just as much. Wish i would have known then what i do now. Just continually learn about boats and listen to what others have done.

I had 211 Four Winns Liberator at 22 years old, man the fun we had on that boat. I wouldn't trade those memories for anything

Damn!!! impressive endeavor....What did you start doing @ that age to make that kinda cash, if I may ask? I'm 26 w/ a 93, 32 fountain had it a couple years now...

1st boat was a 23ft VIP, I was 19 or 20 can't remember...

Im 25 now bought a 24 checkmate at 23 still have it !looking at a 29 outlaw this weekend! Im not rich by any means just very cheap everywhere else! If my car was paid off Id buy a 04-07 35 fountain for sure!

At 18 years old I had a 17 ft Checkmate with a 175 HP. That boat was crazy. When it got to the point where nobody would come out with me anymore, I decided it was time to step up. The good ole days.

25, have a 33 powerplay now. have had a 30 scarab and a 30 velocity.

1st, let me give boat ages. 29 was a 91, 35 was a 93, first 43 was an 01 (should have NEVER sold it) 46 was an 02, and the other 43 is a 99.

Job - At age 19 my father secured an interview for me with a Class 1 railroad as a laborer. I was hired and for the next year i swung a sledge and drove spikes into rail ties (sucked :angry-smiley-038:). I then transfered to the transportation side of the company and became a locomotive engineer for the next 4 years. After that, i was hired to be a designated supt. of loco. engineers. Now i just took a promotion to K.C. to work in intermodal logistics for my company. Good pay but not much of a home life....

+1 I wish i could go back.... :lolhit:
