    Boat Waxing

    Exactly! We had a 16' wood Barbour when I was growing up. My day used to make my two brothers and I sand and paint the entire boat every spring, inside and out including antifouling paint on the hull, if we wanted to use it. What a PITA. But it taught me how important it is to take care of a...

    Sunsation Pulling the Sheet off 36 in April

    Very cool. Be interesting to hear how the 36 performs. I got a close look at that F4 two weekends ago. It was still covered up after its trip back from Miami. But the paint is absolutely incredible. The owner lives here so I'm sure I will get to see more of her this summer. :driving:

    MAKO center console???

    Perfect size for that. I have fond memories of my 21 Wahoo with Yammi 225. Used to put six folks on board with just about every water toy that was available at the time. We even put a jet ski in tow on occassion. What a fun boat! Been thinking about getting another one. A fast one with a T...

    Formula might be a good rough water boat, But

    Looks just like my inlet did on my first trip out in this boat on the way to a poker run Friday night ho down. Had my buddy in a 28 Nordic following me. After I got my drives and tabs set I looked back to see him running back inside. :seeya: I had an absolute blast running this boat in that...

    is Anyone's Boat NOT For Sales?

    I'm guilty of this. But it is certainly not because I no longer feel enjoyment from it. Far from it! This boat is my amusement park ride on the water. :driving: I don't have to sell, but might list it because I've been thinking about a change. Then again, I've already sent my registation...

    AT Pics

    New dash pics are finally up. Biggest change is the shifters on the dash. I'm not impressed by that because I like being able to turn around when I'm backing into a slip and have the shifters next to me not behind me. But the boat is gorgeous!
