Yeah, beats driving 120 miles to 6 flags and paying $50 bucks each to
get in then end up standing on hot asphalt waiting an hr to ride some
whirlie-gig and eat $5.00 hotdogs....

How would you know ?? I just don't see you doing the 6 flags thing...

I usd to pack up the family (5 of us) and make the anual trip to Mid-
America south of St.Louis, starting out at 7am, by the time we were
donefighting the crowds, heat, and walking all over the place... when
we finally got home about 8-9pm, we wondered really what kind of fun
we actually had for $300.00 .

Now, even the little 18 ft. Chris craft, we'd hook it up drive 60 mi
to Lake Carlyle , go tubing and swimming. If you got hot, you bailed
overboard for a while. Got hungry? made sandwich's in the boat. and
always had plenty of pop, juice, and bottle water aboard. When done,
load up, go home and think of the blast we had on less than a hundred
bucks. Time and money well spent.

Well, that's the beauty of the small boats I made. They were designed to
be a cheap day on the water... We could go out for a day with a bag
lunch, a bucket of dry clothes, a few beers, and 6 gallons of gas.
