Re: [Amc-list] off shore power boats and females

[Wrambler242@xxxxxxxxxxx]

I can completely understand the wish to sell said powerboat.
I have dealt with smaller less expensive versions for 25 years.
Boats have all the appeal of sports cars and they are harder to deal with and maintain!
Unless you are very rich or a fikkin contortionist [SP?]. If you leave them at the dock and something goes wrong the d**ned things sink too!  At least our current boat has only 260measliy hp and gets decent fuel "economy" not that anything is economical about owning a boat! 
   I can only imagine the costs to cruise those dual 502's, Like the saying goes, if you have to ask you can't afford it!
Our single 260hp SBC actualy  does quite well on fuel usage though. As long as you don't open it up!
   My favorite watercraft are the small mid 90's seadoos. We have two, they are indestructable, they sink, you  dry them out, they start, they run. 
    If it were up to me alone I would not be a boat person.... But the waterstuff came with the wife...
