what you might buy to keep on your first boat, besides an anchor and
life vests? Also what about Four Winns in general, this was a Repo and
has only 19 hours on it, so I didn't think I could go wrong. Thanks
for your help Mike


You probably didn't go wrong at all. You let somebody else take the
bumps.

I'd suggest getting at least a cheap, yet reasonably comprehensive
first-aide kit. One that's sealed in plastic and hope you never have
to use it. I get them at Wal-mart, and put one in the boats stow-box
(glove compartment?) and leave it there. It's always sealed, if ready
needed. Also a small bottle of sun-blocker lotion doesn't hurt. Its
bad to be caught out *thinking you didn't need it and wish you had it
before the damage was done, and best to have some sun protection than
none at all.

Montecello, eh? isn't that up by Logansport?


Yes fairly close to logansport home of Greg Kinnear. Hee Hee, that is
really the only thing I know about Logansport. The first aid kit is a
good idea thanks.
