Default Appropriate gift for friend you talked into buying first boat?

What an appropriate gift for friend you talked into buying his first boat?
Beer / Wine / Bottle Champagne??? (I'm not gay)

Just a friendly congratulations?

Offer to take him around as much as possible to "show him the ropes"?

Anyone have any sugestions?

He'll probably be on here asking how to find a new friend!

Is their phone number listed right on those?

You guys are a riot

He held out for a really nice runabout, 192 Rinker so nothing over the edge... I just sure hope it treats him as well as I know hes going to treat it!
Just left his house and he's already washed it and now working on waxing it as the kids and I were leaving.

I think we'll be on the lake tomorrow and I may have talked him into his first Mississippi trip for next weekend in LaCrosse
