We'll see what the dyno says

Hey SS ..... I am just asking question ..... and it is just that - a question .. but not a serious concern. The insurance issue ? ... I lived on a lake for several years ...NO ONE that I was aware of had insurance. Now HERE .... where probably most put 20% down and finance it(and the lender requires that to protect their investment)...I can understand that then. ALSO .. in reading the other topic ...I see where it might be the plan. But I have yet to hear WHERE someone actually USED the insurance to cover their butt in a big $$$ situation. OR did I miss that ?

Now to hotAIR ...... bring your junk out ...OR don't you want to be beat by a "pontoon boat" ? ..

LOL

807 gallons of premium ? .... at nearly 4$ per gallon now ...and at-the-dock FIVE DOLLARS ?

$ 4,035.00 ? .... whatever floats-your-boat.

This is not out of my "league" ... but it does not register well on the cost for fun-factor meter. What works for me is jumping in my streeter ... bracket racing it for a total cost of maybe $150.00 ...with the possiblity of winning between 1-1.5k$ per day. OR taking my chopper out for a weekend cruise with my honey back-on the P-pad ....for maybe a 40$ bill for fuel ...

But if youz-guyz think that your "ROI" is worth having a big-titty drunken-bimbo that is more than likely BEING WITH YOU because she is nothing but a gold-digger .....

..if that makes you feel-good ...GO FOR IT.

No 30gals hr for both @5,000. If I remember correctly I burn 48gals hr @ WOT 6,300..... 115mph. Will be running the Skater this week, will double check those figures om the SC5000. I get almost twice the milage as my 2.5's, and They were fuel efficient. I typically put 20 gals a side and run the motors for about 1.5 hrs on a typical lake boating day, Ocean Boating I will burn 60-70 gals a day, but cover A lot of distance.

WOW tell that one to my wife and see if you can still eat corn on the cob
if your buying a boat for Return on investment may as well stop looking now
















ROCK ON !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I DON'T PLAY BASEBALL BUT I HIT ALOT OF HOME RUNS ...
ITS A SKATER NATION !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !

That doesnt make it right. No insurance is a pretty huge gamble in todays world, regardless if no one else does.

He should change his name to irresponsible Wannabe offshore boater Do yourself and others a favor and buy a Canoe!

Come on now off-base-steve .... GET REAL .... and why don't you address a follow-up Q I had .... like WHEN have you used the insurance that was in place?

But ...probably in your case .. your boat is financed to the gills and you are FORCED to have insurance.

Just curious ... what kind of INSURANCE RISK are you anyways ? ... IN your whole life experiences? ... I have been a home and business owner for YEARS ....and of course a home-owner and industrial building owner too ....

.......and I have NEVER had any type of insurance claim....EVER.
