1: "Whoops"
2: "Oh SH$("
3: "Ahh *UCK"
4: "Nice Job *eye roll*"
5: "Smooth"
6: "Does that come factory?"
7: "I know how to navigate....."
8: "Don't worry, I know where we're going"
9: "She's not that drunk"
10: "Damnit, that's the dock isn't it"
11: "WATCH THE DRIVES!"
12: "How bad is it?"
13: "We're out of beer..."
14: "What smells like it's burning?"
15: "I need more power..."
and the best...."Next season I'm going to......." <---never gets done..
I think those are the most commonly used phrases that I can think of during boating season...paying a little homage to those moments boaters know all too well...
..and my personal best this year with someone...
Friend - "That's Block Island....."
Me - "No, it's not..."
Friend - "yes it is, I'm sure of it...I've done this a thousand times...."
Me -"So have I, and no, it's not..."
Friend - "Yes, I know where I am...if that's not Block Island I'll buy you drinks all weekend...it won't take long if it's not we can just run the other way..."
Me - "Deal...and nope I'm pretty sure it's not..."
Me - "That's Montauk...see that big island out there...to the left...that's Block Island...."
Friend - "Ahh $hit.."
2: "Oh SH$("

"Damnit, who's bright idea was it to put glass bottles in the cooler, I said only cans" Me
"Mine, I like my girly drinks..." - Her
"LEARN TO DRINK OUT OF A PLASTIC BOTTLE" - ME
haha some of these are priceless, we've all had em..
The best are people who try and help..."I was just trying to help" well you certainly showed trying is with the intent to fail...don't touch anything....
Best I have is, Don't pull the bow in...DONT PULL THE BOW IN...DONT PULL MY *UCKING BOW IN....
WHY ARE YOU STILL PULLING....
Then you sit there trying to put one drive in reverse, and dealing with the moron on the dock not listening...lol that urks me to no end..

A lot of truth to that! As much as we rib Jeff about his boat, it's a very practical boat (nice avatar Kev!). Something similar with a single 300xs and in the 24-26' range would probably be a ton of worry-free fun. 
With that said it's not the ego thing that drives me towards a larger boat, it's the fact that I'm sick of getting the crap beat out of me the second the wind kicks up a little. In fact I'm not sure how much more my back can take these days! Honestly, I think something around the 34-36' range is kind of the sweet-spot for our area. Big enough to be comfortable on all but the roughest days, but still trailerable (barely anyway).
