Depending on where you boat and what you use the boat for, you might
seriously consider a performance boat w/ an outboard. Used ones are
available for about the same price as a good 20' runabout w/ a V8 engine.
For example. I have $15k in my eliminator. Seats 7, runs 85 mph top end.
Runs 70 w/ 5 adults in the boat
and you can cruise at 60 if you want to all day long. Point is, it will
ski, pull tubes, looks good (to most people), go fast, carry people, tows
well (3400 lbs), rides good (21' tunnel), and is not that expensive to
operate/maintain. Gets right at 3 mpg on an average outing which is a
little running fast, a little cruising at 35 to 40 mph, a little tubing,
etc...
Just a thought.



Okay, there, fella. Now...explain the Saturn.
