We were just in Savannah and there wasn't much of anything around in immediate vacinity. My girlfriends family lives on Tibee Island(sp?) and other than a few small marinas, I didn't see anything. Head down to Florida and the sky is the limit! Just hit the Miami boat show and they'll have everything!!! Easier and cheaper to get it all done in one shot! Good Luck! The other option is to list what features you are looking for on a boat, create a post here and I'm sure everyone will be more than happy to make recommendations. Be as specific as possible, otherwise the list will be crazy!!!

Tybee Island...

we go there all the time, had once looked at houses there, but missed out. now prices have sky rocketed. too bad. when we first started going, it was like an island version of that TV show Northern exposure. same people... Where does your gf's family live on the island?

oh and as for the boat... older mid to early 90's top gun or similar sized boat. need some creature comforts. Mom isn't to big on the hi speed, beat the hell out of yourself style of boating dad and I are interested in.

They live just off the road to the right in a development just before getting to the island. There was recently two older top guns for sale here at OSO that looked like great deals with what looked like all the good stuff in the cabins. Check if you haven't already looked.

Russ is "THE MAN" when it comes to boating in Savannah. He puts on one helluva 4th of July poker run.

As far as HP dealers, you probably have to go to Jacksonville before you really find anything. Kevin would be the guy to find down there, he used to be at Port Jax SeaRay that sold Fountains and stored alot more diffrent hot rods. There's a really good upholstery guy there and I think they are moving into paint also. And you are only 4 hours from CHIEF ENGINES when in Jax.

I know the times that I have been in Savannah, I have had a great time as a result of Russ showing the way around.

The only HP dealers that I know of in the Atlanta area are a Fountain dealer off of Brown's Bridge Road near Gainesville and a Baja dealer over by Lake Allatoona.

If ya'll move there, ya'll will have to come up to Lanier one weekend in the summer.

I think the Baja dealer is Park Marine, I'm not sure where they are located.

The Fountain dealer is Fountain Power Boats of Ga. (I think), and they are located on Hwy 369 just east of Hwy 306 (about an hour from I-75 and Hwy 20, exit 290 on I-75)

When are ya'll driving down?
