Ok, I have mixed feelings about this.

1. If you have had it for 3 months, you CERTAINLY should have been out more than 5 times.

2. How the heck do you get that many hours with only 5 trips? You must do some long cruising?

I boat on a relatively small lake compared to most. Its just under 30,000 acres of water. So, for us, we put the boat in the water, tube/ski/play, then go tie up with friends or at party cove, or toss the anchor and let the kids play.

I bought my bought in mid-May 2008, its got 40.6 hours on it and thats going out every Sunday I could as long as the weather was good. More power to you though, it means you are enjoying it!

Okay here's how we do it , all of our boating is done at our block on the River Murray which has involved weekend trips. So in 5 weekend trips =42 hours on the clock the boat is used mainly for waterskiing kneeboarding etc. So it doesn't take long , Easter added another 10 hours alone. and oh yeah we are having a ball !!!!
