What kind of boat does everyone own, if you could have your dream boat what would it be? I own a '96 Doral 36 Express Cruiser. *My dream boat would be a 50" Trawler. Presently, I have a 1977 Marquis 23' cuddie, with a GM 305 and alpha1. I'm working on and outfitting for a long haul river cruise this summer. i also have a 1983 18' Chris Craft Scorpion 1ith a GM 3.0 mercruiser alpha 1. Which is a 'hook up 'n go' runabout which it's used at the local lake a lot. It''s a bit cramped ofr my frame, but a cool and fun (yet noisy) little boat. Also I bought a 30' Pontoon and trailer this summer. It was a "gotta have!' deal and the previous owner called me and asked if I'd sell it back to him. I'm considering it seeing that it's well just too big for my needs. Plus it has a 1977 Johnson Sea Horse v-4 85 HP that is a good engine, but they're a gas hog by todays standards (and economy!) and I'm getting leery of the future fuels and the increase in ethanol. Plus, I've scabbed, scrapped and disposed of various parts boats. |
