Default I'm thinking of buying a 1989 Thundercraft magnum "bubble boat"

I've decided for our purposes, we'd be better off finding a good deal
on a 20-22 ft. open bow


What you really need is a good solid 18' tri-hull of about 1977 vintage. And
I just happen to know where one is ...

Thanks Earnest. I do appreciate the offer, however, thats really only
about a foot longer than what I have now.

Ah, but it's got that fabulous barge-like shape that makes it way roomier
than those pointy nosed things they make nowadays.

Thanks John, Hey! thats a nice looking boat!

I am look at a cuddy as we speak. I'm really not a cuddy fan, but this
is a 21 foot, marquis, with a GM 305 mercruiser, and it's priced down
to where its reasonable.

Did you ever consider a walk-around cuddy? I've been very pleased with
mine, and it's much safer than the bubble boat for someone trying to get to
the front of the boat. Here is one like mine.

The trihulls were one of the greatest boats for room inside for lake
boating. As long as the lake was smooooooth. Any chop and the
chiropractor collected.


Mine doesn't do that.
