What Was YOUR First Boat?
 
Just thought it would make for an interesting forum. From the perspective of a 16 year old...watching these guys with their MTIs and Outerlimits makes you wonder where they all started from. This way it'll give me a LITTLE hope that I can get up to that level one day lol SO....what was your first boat?

21 foot sea ray. With 350 mag. And a kick ass stereo. Lots of drunk nights on that boat.

180 bow rider sea ray with 3.0. Did lots of tubing off of it. Great beignet size if you ask me.

1999 25' baja h2x. I hated that boat, It would beat you to death and didn't have bolster seats so that blew! Ran good, looked cool, and packed it with girls every weekend, so everything I just said is irrelevant. Lol

we had a formula 242ls with twin 350s and bolsters...running in the ocean definitely a little rough. The occasional smash off of a wave was not the best feeling in the world but it was a great "entry level" powerboat

My Dad had a 242 formula back in the day. I learned how to drive a boat while sitting on life jackets so I could see, I was about 10 yrs old. That boat was such a dog with a single 350, topping out at 40ish if I remember correctly.
