in all honesty when i purchased my boat which was about a half year ago...
i bought a jet ski, sold the same jet ski a few weeks later, and boat a boat all within a month time frame. if you are set on buying a boat you will make it happen.
personally it doesnt sound like you want one. not bashing scot or anything. its perfectly ok not to want a boat. thats his decision. all i am saying is that if he really wanted one he would have pulled the trigger a while ago. we are about to enter a time where boat buying is not good (spring). you will likely have to wait until mid summer or fall for good deals again. my 0.02
p.s. my intent here was to either
1 tell it how it is...i hope it isnt
2 talk b.s. so scot can prove me wrong haha
I hope its the second one.

Well Scot, Studio54 always has a VIP pass for you if you dont find anything, good luck with the boat-quest as I have run out of suggestions for you. I think if you were going to buy something, you would have done it by now...........Just my senseless thought

Justin, I've given this more thought and I think you're 100% right on all counts. I dont know that I really want an additional boat. This is the wrong time to buy a boat as there are no deals out there. And since I haven't been able to get it done within a few weeks, I'm probably just never going to get it done. Thanks for showing me the light.

I've decided to buy a trailer instead of a boat. Far more ecconomical. Gotta be aluminum and preferably not one of those cheapo bolted together flexomatic models. Something that looks nice and adds a little value to an imaginary boat.
I cant afford a boat, so a new Myco might be a little more than I want to spend. Should I be looking at used models and then mod to fit my imaginary boat, or just spend 50% - 100% more and go with new. Drive gaurd & EoH are a must, which might make finding a used model a little tougher. If new, is Manning the way to go?
