The kids and I have 4 jet skis but no back up boat.
You have no idea how much I regret selling our old mid 80's 16' Bayliner with the Force 70, even though she'd been ridden hard and put up wet it was still a fun boat.
I'm trying to buy this classic 16 foot wood boat but need to come to an agreeable price with the seller.
I think she's awesome but overpriced.

See ya,
Kelly

Default Wooden, classic and antique boats are a lot of fun...

...they are also a great deal of effort!

I have one old boat you have never heard of, a Beck Boat. The attention it draws us unbelievable! It is my GF. I does 6.5 knots and uses about a quart of gas a day, a gallon if I really push it hard... real hard!

I think I am covered.
Biggest problem is deciding which one to take out.

Hallett 270T with twin 377" Scorpions is the dependable daily driver.


and the back up is my 17' Barron Sprint flat bottom, had an injected Big Block Chevy, but soon to have a Blown Alcohol Chevy as I am converting it to a K Racing Runabout class race boat, just waiting on the engine.

Have 3 boats, the Hydrostream is MY boat that I take out by myself or if the kids want to go tubing/sking, the 388 is the Family ride, when HQ and kids want to go, and the Nordic 35 is FOR SALE! No shame in this plug

Just picked up a leftover Stingray 250CS cruiser as a back up. My wife's happy.
