Boating Season

Anyone here ready to get out on the water? I'm wrestling with putting my pontoon in this weekend. I usually wait until the end of April but it's been in the 80's for the last two weeks here. It'll give me an excuse to drive the Camaro some more now because the lake is about an hour away.

I am ready to do a little wakeboarding. The water here in southern Ohio won't be ready for at least another month though.

I have to wait another year. I sold my old 1990 Barretta 185 to get my Camaro 5/09. When the 2013 Seattle Boat show comes. My plan is to order a new Bryant 196. We will see how things work out. But, YES I am dying to get back out on the water. Boating has always been one of my biggest passions.

Bryant makes some NICE boats. I've been looking at the new Bayliners. I like the new 245 SB.

Here's my current toy. I think it's time to upgrade soon though.

In this area Im expecting lots of forsale signs if the price doesn't get under control, as once in the water, the dock price is always a $1 more.

I put the pier yesterday and waiting for the lift to go in. Cant get an exact date from the crane company. The boat will go in the same day as the lift, weather permitting.

Go For It!!!

No doubt. It's been a great couple years to be a boat buyer, seller not so much.
