New DC boater?
"Rick" wrote in message oups.com... I'm beginning research to buy a powerboat in downtown DC. I grew up waterskiing and boating alot in my youth and teens, but haven't touched it since. I live in Du Pont circle and would mostly cruise the bay and short trips up and down the coast, as well as park the Georgetown waterfront on saturday nights. I probably will waterski some, but mostly just cruise fast and listen to music.  My budget is around $15k-20k, used.I'm looking more for something fast, instead of something that sleeps 4 or 5. I would only really need to sleep two, and I'm not sure on traveling capacity. The furthest I could ever see going is Hatteras. I know this will be a process, but I was looking for direction about docking in the Washington Powerboat Marina (in the Potomac near Old Town). This was because I don't own a car and would like to just taxi out and take the boat out a few times a week. I was also interested in sources for comparing and shopping for powerboats, instead of only grabbing the latest boating magazine at the bookstore. |
