lol . . . now thats some funny schit right there :D

When the wife or girlfriend agrees,jump on the moment,a 35 sonic or 38 would fit your and her needs,lots of room in those cabins.....

Being in Pittsburgh we spend more time lounging and overnighting on the boat than going wot. That is why I looked for something that had good amenities. I am very happy with my 36 Outlaw. It has good speed but is great for hanging out on. I'm sure you will be able to find a compromise go fast, whether is another sonic or something else. Good luck

We got into a 40' Sea Ray Express with twin Cat 3208 diesels a few years ago...loved it. Paid cash for it...no payments...except: $750/month slip rental, $3500/year "Blister Tax" (haul it, paint the bottom, renew the zincs, service the rudders, props, struts and shafts), plus about $350~$500 fuel charge for a run to the Keys or to Freeport.

So I finally figured out that it cost $12K~ $13K just to own it whether I used it or not. That brought me back to my trailer boat state of mind. I'll have less than $25K in this Formula when I'm done and I can go any where within reason....and stay in a hotel!!!:evilb:

But...hey...go for it!!! Everybody has to do it sooner or later!!!

Man I saw a 30-something Superboat a couple months ago with twin 300x... that was a sexy bastard. Keep an eye out?

Lot of boat for the $$ if it is solid though, especially considering the trailer, and some new stuff. Gonna be thirsty with those motors though.

Twin- dont know what your budget or length maximum is, but if you get one of the 31-36' Sonics with the tall deck (they have various model names SE etc.) the cabin is pretty roomy.

Thanks for all the input guys. Was intended as a joke but who knows.

Here's a boat for sale, identical to what I sold to buy my first 24' Sonic. Same condition too. I did that soon after doing the same math as Sprink did.

Closest I could come to the perfect cruiser for what I could afford and loved it. Check out the bench seat across the front of the bow. Was my favorite place. Welded aluminum plate, near zero maintenance and great on gas.
Bought it for $38K and sold it two yrs later for $40K w/o spending a dime on it.

Here's the marina I've been talking about too.
http://www.harbortownmarina.com/
An hr north of us for about $350. per mnth plus elec.
It is on what we call the barge canal which runs (east and west) between the Indian (the Intracoastal) and Banana River and then dumps into the Port Canaveral Canal where you're 2 mls from the Atlantic.
As far as boating options....., what else could you want?
TONS to do on Cocoa Beach which 5 mins away etc, etc.
When I had my old cruiser I had it stocked like a cottage so all I took was a duffel bag w/clothes each weekend. Where we are now, that means, put the top down on the wifes Saab and up A1A on the barrier islands every Friday to the boat.

Sprink, when I had my epiphany I was sitting on the back deck of the cruiser doing the math. Friend docked beside me told me I was making a huge mistake and that I would sell the boats soon as I saw what it cost me. He was right but.........., that was also in Ohio ;)

We'll see. Long ways away from doing anything but my Sonic will never be worth more than it is right now and the stuff for sale and the prices........, yikes!
Another cool thing about the cruiser deal is that you still have a cottage if you don't want to buy gas.
Almost forgot the dinghy too. Where that marina is a 9' dinghy w/a 15 would be an absolute blast. Built this one up north and towed it with me EVERYWHERE.
