    I am looking at purchasing a new boat, as our bayliner has finally died on us..... We are looking for an easy to handle ski, wake board and tubing boat. 3 boats we are looking at are the Sea Ray 185, Maxum 1800 SR3 and the four winns. What do you guys think? Any one better then the other? Let me know.

    why play with plastic

    If you want a boat find a classic and put bigger engines in it, sorry to be unsympathetic, but god didn't make fibreglass trees. a boat isn't a boat 'til you sweat in the varnish(Cetol) :D :rolleyes:

    What’s going on in this forum?

    What’s going on in this forum? One man in another post is running down the hall tearing out his hair and this one is saying that god didn’t make fiberglass trees. Well god didn’t make thickness planers either. He’s asking a real question about a real boat, is this type of forum going to be a waste of time. I have joined to learn something and share what little that I know. Can someone answer both his and my question?
