Decision made - boat for sale...
I'm tired of Mrs. Wave's carping about boats.Therefore, I'm reducing the fleet to one by selling all my boats and
buying a new one. The Ranger is for sale. Sans engine, with the FICHT and with the
ETEC. Anybody interested, let me know. |

| Yes, I *am* laughing out loud! The wife wants to know what was so funny.
She agrees with you. |

| Saw a cute little 17'er at the marina today, with a 90hp Yammie 4 stroke
attached. Might have to give them a look when we move. http://www.keywestboatsinc.com/boats/176cc.html |

| JohnH,
At your age, you should not be looking at 17 yr old. ;) |

| The best deal is the FICHT - I can always match the ETEC with another. That boat sings with the FICHT w/o the jack plate and with the jack
plate, it will be much better in wind and waves. Actually, I hate to sell it, but SWMBO has put her foot down. Wimmenz - can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em. |

| Are you buying new? Check out the new Southport Express 28'. http://www.thehulltruth.com/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=148247&posts=4 In the 28' range, Scout and Grady make a nice boat too. |

| Like that southport. Be great with a 400 hp straight diesel. |

| I've checked out Scouts and like them - they just don't seem to fit me
for some reason. Can't explain it. Grady's are good, but I've never been overly impressed with them -
overpriced. |

| Must be a conspiracy by the builder to limit supply... :-) |

| I believe Whalers are way overpriced, and Gradys are, too, but a bit
less so. |

| I agree but there seem to be plenty of buyers wiling to pay the
premium. They both make a decent boat and have acquired a powerful
brand image over the years. |

| You know what's the coolest thing about that boat? They didn't use a stupid Igloo cooler and pad for a seat in front of the
console. Eisboch |

| There's a lovely pursuit of about that size for sale just south of
Annapolis. Diesel inboard, I think. |

| That's a beautiful boat. Obviously it's been well taken care of. It's more
boat than I want, or I'd be interested. |
