No matter how much I measure it, it is still barely a 25'. Seeing all of you kinda made me shy.

Now the wifey is more interested in moving up. She got a bit nervous on the lake...didn't like the wave action too much. I dropped the tabs a bit which helped. As I said in my other forum, I think she would feel better in a 29' although she wants a cruiser instead of a go-fast. At least I have her steered toward a Formula.

It was a great day for boating!

Dont think twice about it,,, when I met these guys I had a Baja 272.

Doesnt matter !!!!!!!!!

Tell ya what...come out to the Beach Party, anchor in and meet some people. I'd be happy to take you and your wife out for a ride...I'm sure others would respond in kind. A ride in Mr. Cig's boat is what got my wife to agree to a bigger offshore.

Yea, I know Mr Cig...It has been a long.......time

I am working on fitting the Party into my schedule. You leave outta Rt 30 & 45?
