Between motor issues and ripping the bottom off my boat, I got 1 weekends use out of it. So I have resorted to bumming rides from my fiberglass guy and my motor fixin guy. Thanks to Glassdave for the boat rides and Brian41 for the flying lessons!! It may not be my boat, but at least I have spent some time on boats with good people this summer and that's what its all about.

Same situation here. Between the crappy weather and some mechanical issues we only have 10 hrs on this season. Not looking good now for any further boating, weather is starting to turn and kids are back in school and busy with activities. Feeling pretty down about the whole thing, spent a ton of time and money(for us at least) on the boat from so little use.
|
90 hrs so far this season.

In the past I used my boat every weekend. The last 3 years I have had the boat out 3 times a season. I have been putting around 8 hours on a season. I am taking it out today in about 30 minutes. Jeff Wurl

I almost feel like its a waste....maybe im just sad knowning that in michigan the boating season is only 5months....or maybe im just venting...anyways going to finish up my door install at home and head out to the lake for the 8th time this year lol |
I'm in the same boat. Start the year with fuel issues on a new boat and they plagued me all summer, eventually coming to a head the sunday before labor day. Not a good year when you buy a boat in the spring and still bum more rides than you take yours out.
And now that I've typed this I feel really smart. lol |
27 hours with only a couple more weekends to go.
|
35 hrs. so far
|
i feel better knowing that im not the only one who feels like i wasted a lot of money on a boat. lol
well guys im glad im not alone! |
Today was a bust so mark me down for two days this year and less than 3 hours. Found two broken bolts on steering pump when I got down to boat. Hopefully an easyout and some new bolts will get me on the water by next weekend...
