Playing a round of golf or buying a Harley is certainly cheaper than a performance boat!
I play golf some. Harley's are for lame old men and hardo wannabes. I do love go fast boats. However, my friends are quite judgemental of them and don't see the point. They'd prefer an open bow (if they could even afford a boat). I am 29.

We are very indecisive lol
That's very apparent but it isnt a bad thing... I remember watching you shop for your sonic and thinking "dang I'm glad that fella got what he wanted" 2-3 months later it turns out it isnt... it happens... you don't owe anybody an apology for your preference.

The people that want a CC so they can take all their friends can give a few of mine a ride. The last thing I want on any boat I own is a crowd. F that.

When I was shopping for my first, fast boat my GF at the time asked why we couldn't look at cruisers. I told her all we were going to do every weekend was tie up to the big boats and hang out so it would be best to come and go as we please. Quickly.

And, as a result, there would never be room for more than her, two of her friends, and me.

I am the opposite. My friends are my family. I enjoy them on the boat and their love of boating as well.

I don't have friends that trash boats. I am fortunate enough to own something a lot of my friends can't and they know that. My friends help out with anything that's needed and truly enjoy being on the water.

I enjoy them on my boat too and their enjoyment means a lot to me.

I LOVE my Sonic.....I really do. I honestly don't give it enough credit. But I do know for how much I do boat, how I boat, and where. It sadly can not be my only boat.

Who ever buys my Sonic will get a amazing boat that has been super cared for it's entire life. I hope one day to be in the position to own something like it and something more like I need more times than not.

Imagine if all of your buddies felt the same way, you would have missed out on on those rides this last year!

Did you buy that boat from the Pompano area?
