Anyone one here have a boat?

chrisM6 · 02-24-2008, 02:36 PM

I have a 22 foot inboard Malibu Ski boat with a 350 monsoon in it, shit is the funnest thing ever to go wake boarding on! (this isnt mine because I didnt take any pictures of it its just to give you an idea of what I have)

Neema · 02-24-2008, 03:02 PM

we have a decently sized sail boat in the Dana Point Harbor, that rarely ever gets used : (

darkcloud · 02-24-2008, 03:03 PM

A buddy of mine has something like the top right one. It's fun as hell.

Jay_328 · 02-24-2008, 03:11 PM

we go out a bunch in the summer plus he likes to fish, I don't

Family has a 1989 Island Packet 35. It's a slug with anything less then 10 knots of wind and zips along at 15 knots.

This is a newer model, but is similar in size and dimensions.

Whenever there is wind to get it going in the summer.

Unfortunately the Chesapeake is mostly a <10 knot place. Or at least where the boat is kept the wind seems to be always <10 knots. As I said, the boat is a heavy one( full keel) and it sings at 15 knots.

well the two pics you listed are two different boats. do you have a regual tower or the hourseshoe tower? Also do you have v-drive or the wedge you drop in on Malibu boats?

Personally I am a correct craft kind of guy. I am buying a super air nautique this summer. They are by far the best quality boats in the wakeboarding industry. You hit a double up and the tower dosnt even squeek.

Nope and dont want one.. They are a lot of work.. I just help pay for gas and help clean up my friends boat after we go to the lake. They seem like a nightmare to own and tow and store.

Thats part of it, just like your car. You get satisfaction out of taking care of her. Here is the boat my father and I get great joy out out.

She is a 2004 Sabre 402

A car is different than a boat. A boat is more of a fun luxury item you use what once a month..

I get out on this boat about 4 times a week, freind.

She will be in the water from April until October.

The only high maintenance time for the boat is really the spring and fall which is when you normally haul the boat and winterize it or launch it and get it ship shape. In between then it should be smooth sailing for us sailboats. Motorboats on the other hand can be high maintenance.

lucky you. I live in AZ and basically we can only use the lake during the summer months, and at most my friend takes the boat at once every few weeks, partly because we have to drive around 2 hours depending on traffic.

GuyOh · 02-25-2008, 12:45 AM

you motorboating son of a bitch

Comet · 02-25-2008, 02:42 AM

glad to see more sailing enthusiasts around here
I've got my power boat license by the RYA

getting my skipper's soon (although I've been piloting one since I was like 12)

Twin 7.4L V8 MerCruisers

my speedboat is the second from the left, and the sailboat next to it is also mine
it's a 1990 Formula Thunderbird... bloody fast.. I've hit 70+ knots with it (flat sea etc...)

TurboFan · 02-25-2008, 05:53 AM
