I put alot of money into mine, and I lost alot of money when I sold it. I keep myself motivated to buy another boat by reminding myself of the "fun factor" of having a boat. If you really think of how much it costs to enjoy this sport, it's really expensive!!

My last boat was a specific, purpose built boat. That is one reason it took me so long to sell it. I wish you the best when you buy your boat--just get a survey and have a professional mechanic check out the motors.

Thanks for your response. I knew your boat was a special purpose boat. If I was currently single I would have purchased your boat 6 months ago. Im currently looking for something cool for the right price. Im not relying on any loans, so If I find the right deal, Im ready to right a check. We'll see....

Hows the search going?

Semp, would you consider a smaller single?
That 2000 28 pantera w/ the cat on the side is cool.

Sounds like a nice boat, but I want twinns I still like to go to Catalina, so I would need twinns for the safety.

I actually was waiting to see if my "regular" insurance co would write a 33 with hp500s. They are looking into it. I was also looking at this
