Ha, that must have been funny.... well, I don't know about 'funny' Scott, but getting a boat, even a small boat, has proven to be a whole lot more fun and economical.... |

How would you know ![]() 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. |

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. |
