Your lucky, that wouldn't work with mine. She'd insist on going and then she would be a PITA the whole time.

my wife refuses to go on my boat.....since it caught on fire on the initial test drive 4 years ago......:zip:

[macojoe]

my wife always wants to go, but I no let her go on commercial days, so she isa only able to go like 3 times a year, but I make sure the weather is less then perfect so she is not wanting to go again to quick!

That brings back BAD memories for me there now. I was 50 miles off of MONTAUK when the 43' TORRES we had just bought had a generator fire. Sure got us going, espescially considering the seas were true 6 footers with a 20 knot wind building up.

the impeller went bad on my test drive and with no water coming in to cool her down one of the exhaust hoses melted to the side of the manifold. THICK BLACK smoke coming out of every hole on the boat....:zip:
