Unfortunatley, this is not a cheap hobby and you will always want something bigger:D most call it 2 footitis.
By the way, you do know what BOAT stands for don't you?
Break Out Another Thousand!
Were always willing to help a fellow boater out if we can. If you have a problem or a question, just ask.
Anyway, welcome to the boating lifestyle, I hope you enjoy it as much as the rest of us:party-smiley-048:

Thanks! Im learning the meaning of BOAT very fast. I think i have waisted a couple thousand maybe 4k so far. just to get this boat over 65 MPR. o-well... I love every minute of it. I will be there next year with something around 28+ foot! the guy who painted my boat and some others will be with me! check out his work www.boatcustoms.com.

That is a sharp looking boat, kinda looks like a mini Cig.
We will keep an eye out for you.
We are in a Formula 292 with red, blue, black stripes with world champion logo on the sides.
Name is Never Satisfied
Stop by and say hi if you see us

I boat on lake Erie with my 23 Baja.We were at Loto a month ago with it and that lake gets crazy rough as said before,waves from all directions.
I think boats over 15k lbs should be banned from that lake. Dam crusier wakes.

There are a lot of offshore boats that weigh 15,000 lbs. My 36' Apache weighs well over 12,000 lbs with fuel and a few people.

Be careful what you wish for.

Jassman and Sandy came up for the weekend for his first trip to LOTO. He road with us all weekend and got a new appreciation for washing machine water.:party-smiley-048:

Just got home tonight.
What a great time we had on the lake this weekend.
Met a ton of great people and had a blast.
And I also have a whole new respect for the washing machine effect. There were some huge waves on Saturday afternoon.
The boat ran fantastic, handled the rough stuff like a champ as usual and everybody made it back in one piece.
Looking forward to next year already:party-smiley-048:
