How Many Boats Have You Owned Over The Years?
 

FROM YOUR FIRST-EVER TO YOUR CURRENT BOAT?

Started out with a 12 Sears PLASTIC boat with a 5 hp Johnson at age 12 or so.

14 Foot Aluminum with a 9.9 Merc (still have it)

14 foot Glastron with a 50 Merc (still have it)

20 foot Jason cuddy with a 5.0 liter HO (POS boat)

Currently have a 24 Baja with 454 Chevy

Dang.....I can't count. I put my vote in the 3-4 instead of the 5-6. Guess I'm mucking up the vote.

I only counted my power boats not my sailboats and windsurfers. At one point I had 16 wind surfers and they were all worth over 2 grand. Who ever thinks power boats are a lot of money should try sailing :D:D
