They are all just air pumps, Right? Seriously though, doesn't it make it fun to have some variety out there? remember the good old days of mustangs versus camaros versus cudas?

I start out with a fantastic hull and personalize it with my own power, it's just that I am one of the Mustang (boss 302) guys. You be the Z28 guy and we will drag every time we see each other on the water. But being BOAT guys, I will tow you back in when you break. : RINK:

Ok... bought a used boat (2004 w/ 27 hours on it) from a private sale as a "hold me over until I find more of what I want but can still go boating" boat, boat was ALL of what the buyer said it was, and more! Deal went down in about 3 days from start to finish, all good. Have developed a couple of stress cracks, (minor) in the gel, so it will be interesting to see what the dealer / manufacturer says about fixing them, but aside from that - no issues. And actually this boat is pretty damn fun, I may just keep it when I do find the next one...

Bought a new Velocity VR1 from Jeff Ziegler at Modern Marine in Michigan. Great boat and great family owned/run dealership.
