My discretionary spending may not be has high as some others but these are the boats that I have played with the last several years:

1973 Saf-T-Mate 15' Tri-hull w/76-70HP Evinrude:

I did a sole/stringer restore on the boat over 3 years and finished it in June of 2007. I used it all the rest of that summer. I sold it when I bought the Four Winns.

Image

Image

Image


1981 Four Winns 180 Marquise Cuddy:

I bought this boat at a local auction for a price that I just couldn't pass up. Oct. 07. I used it for a full season and then decided it would be prudent to determine if the transom was solid. It hasn't been in the water since July 08. As it sits today the boat is in 1000 pieces. I expect to finally get it finished this spring. I'll probably sell it when I'm complete. Although, I really like the boat and may decide I like it too much to sell.

1991 Larson All American 190 outboard:

I bought this boat this past fall to fill the void while I am trying to find the "perfect" boat.

Small Quiz: how many tubes do you see in this picture (identify)?

This is where it all started for me... circa 1970 Plancraft Sceptre with Chrysler 90hp outboard.
It used to smoke that bad we were once asked to leave the lake :cry:
