I'm itching to get the family out fishing or cruising on a Sunday. Also curious to see how the lady responds, and whether or not shes gonna play along. She has a fear of drowning so therefore usually avoids water activities.
Located in center city Philadelphia a couple blocks from the Art Museum.
I know I'm jumping around now, but I am balancing out the convenience of small boat that is easy to setup and get moving and tow along like a little jet boat. I would not even need to get rid of it when I find what I'm looking for. Maybe a Yamaha jet boat or something, just something to last minute take to the lake or bay with minimal effort and allow my family to drive and play, wake-board, tube and such.
Well.... I guess I want two boats.
Mooky I'm gonna PM you my Number

Man you sure are all over the place. Fishing, wakeboarding, power boating, cruising, jet boat. My guess is, if your wife is afraid of water sports, the bigger the boat the better. More stable. Nothing too fast, maybe 60-70 mph. Depending on what your using to tow with, say 26-30 ft. You living in center city, where are you intending on keeping the boat at? Hey Mark, sounds like he should buy your boat and you move on up? Tiggs, just my 2cts but I think you need to do some more research, maybe try to get some time in a few different boats, styles and sizes. Don't make any quick decisions or purchases.

I live in center city but storage I am not worried about thanks to projects getting help up with financing nowadays I have enough vacant land or garages to put a boat in.
Thank for the call mark, I left you a message back.
Went and looked at a few boats yesterday and now I'm even more confused with all the options. The larger boat for the lady makes sense I think my max length is about 36-ish.
