Thats the weakest...most immature thought and saying ever...and usually only made by people jealous of others with bigger/better things.
Mind you I dont hve a "big" boat....Ive always had BIG trucks...12-20" of lift and I drive them because I LIKE them not cause I have a small penile organ and am compensating.
I want a bigger boat cause well....they are cool and bigger sunpads are obviously AWESOME!

And for the record, if you read my post, you will see it was a reply (quote was included) to Powerplay J's comment/joke "Bigger boat = bigger ego." Might want to do a search for the humorless section SBX if you cannot see the joke.....

Now if i run a lakes and such what advantage do I gain by getting a bigger/longer boat at that point? I view ~30 ft boats as the smallest/light boat can handle xxx amount power. It seems like if I get a bigger boat I will just need more power increase just to run what a smaller boat will run with stock engines.
What advantage do you get to run a boat longer than ~30 feet?
Thanks for the info all.

V's up to 38 are pretty easy to trailer and launch. Storage and gas is pricey once you go above 30'. Figure out your needs/wants and buy what you really want. Having a bigger boat opens up a bunch of possibilities...

I have always had single engine sport boats, but I am really contemplating stepping up myself. However I am looking to go from a single Big Block to twin O/Bs strapped to the back of a Center Console w/small cuddy. Just seems like a more practical solution for my boating purposes......

I personally like cats, and think the best size for west coast lakes is 32-33. I have a 38 and its a hassle to launch and dock. Plus, it's 10'4 wide and trailering it takes getting used to. But, it is rock solid at 130 MPH with lots more to go!
