It really is quite irritating to see people get a new boat every fricking year. In the real world if your wife let's you get one every 6 or 7 your lucky.

I agree with Troy, the best day is when it is paid for.

Subject: RE: the 2 best days for a boat owner?


have made the move to the restored, vintage and paid for option for toys the past few years. it's a far-cry from new, but because they are classic vintage and fully restored they still look cool, go fast and i'd argue can be even more rewarding to both own and show off.

because in the end it is just "showing off" ... lol

I disagree. Isn't the "Best" day as a boat owner the first day you have it on the water?

One more vote for the day it's paid for. When you pick it up, pay cash, and take it to the lake and boat a fish all on the same day ... sweetness!

First day on the water in mine resulted in a chipped prop and the rear trolling motor bent like a pretzel. Was not my best day, but it was paid for!!!!

Iagree about all these guys getting new rides every year. Everyone must have sponsorships and get them at discount, the depreciation hit after one or two years would get costly otherwise. I always look at these guys in vitage Rangers and think those are really cool boats. I have an 05 619...I figure I have another 20 years before I look cool and vitage in my old ride...they're going to have to bury me in it 'cause I don't see myself needing anything else.

The 2 best days in my "boating" life besides marrying my wife are
!. The day I bought my first boat
2. The day I bought a RANGER

The third day until today was looking at that sparkling beauty in the garage.

To me the two best days are the day you get the boat and the day you put the first musky in the boat.

best days for a boat owner...
the day you become a Ranger boat owner ; )
1st 50 in your boat
The day the Merc blows up and you have to put a Suzuki on it... ; )
the days you net friends first muskies or PB's..

When the Merc blows up??? You must be the 1 in 1,000,000 customers it happens to. My boat is a '92 Maxum fiberglass fish\ski package. Not the most awesome boat out there, but it floats. '93 Mercury 115, and since it was purchased, I have put less than $1000 into it. Most of the cost was after a 3 yr period of letting the boat just sit with no use. Had to get the carbs completely gutted and cleaned, tune-up... Like I said - less than $1000 into it in 16 years. GO MERCURY!!!

Edit: By the way, Michael, how much you selling this boat for? Free shipping?

it sounds like a bunch of other people had one of those "best boat days" this weekend, with Tuffy selling in the neighborhood of 10 new boats at the Milwaukee show. welcome and congratulations to all the new Tuffy owners!

Jim: sorry, my boat is already gone, but there are lots of other quality used rigs for sale in our classified ads section. (all kinds: Tuffys, Rangers, Lunds, etc.)

The fourth best day would have to be when your wife asks when are you getting a new boat?

Im still on my first boat so I would have to say the day you buy the boat is the best one.

The best 2 days for me:

1st best day: Getting the first legal-length fish in the boat!!
2nd best day: Watching and helping another get their personal best in the boat!!

I guess all opinions on what the best days are for a boat owner aren't allowed on here..?

best days for a boat owner...
the day you become a Ranger boat owner ; )
1st 50 in your boat
The day the gas guzzling loud efi motor dies and you are forced to put a different one on... ; )
the days you net friends first muskies or PB's..
