What are the qualitity differences. Sea Ray-Regal
Harry, are you serious about "tired old woman" or was that a joke that
failed? Do you plan on getting rid of wife number 2 when she gets old and tired? "Harry Krause" wrote in message ... Karl Denninger wrote: Buy your boats used.

What are the qualitity differences. Sea Ray-Regal
Paul,
If your looking for a boat to survive a Hurricane, your over thinking the whole Idea. Hurricanes are what insurance is for. If your looking for a lake boat (small) a Bayliner will suit you fine (sorry Harry, I agree with you on the brand but depending on the useage it would work.) You can pay 60k for a 20ft Cobalt or Chris Craft(new ones are very cool looking) and it will last forever. but if your using it on a smaller lake and keep it garaged the 20ft bayliner/glastron will give you the same pleasure for about 18k. best of luck "Paul" wrote in message le.rogers.com... Buy your boats used. You can indeed afford boats that are built well. I am very new to boating and I realize I may be starting an argument which is very much not my intention, I'm just trying to learn here. Would there be a difference between being built well and being able to survive being smashed into pilings by 74 mph winds in a hurricane? I swear to god that's not intended as flamebait, I honestly thought a well built boat could still fare badly if loose in a hurricane. |

Hi Michael, thanks for your input.
I'm actually not looking for a boat that could survive a hurricane. I was just questioning the opinion some people hold that if it can't survive smashing it into a piling it's not well built.
