I love this boat ! ! !

Always loved that hull and that particular boat is SWEET! Price isn't bad at all, if you could find a good deal on a trailer...

One of these days...

As for launching by yourself, it can be done. My neighbor has a 25-26' Regulator and he launches it by himself all the time. Very impressive to watch.

I had a 25' John Almand, and loved it, but as the kids got older and left the house I had less and less available labor to help with it. Yes, you're 100% correct, it can be done, but I've found that with age also comes the desire to KISS things. (K.I.S.S.= Keep It Simple Stupid) If you can do the same things with smaller and easier then KISS the big boat goodby.

Understood, Destroyer

Truth be told, I've found that a 20' boat is "just right" for me; easy to launch and maintain... Perhaps when my boys get older (they're 2 and 4... we got started late... LOL), I can consider a larger boat, but for now the 20' will more than do.

Nice boat. But I can tell you that the picture of the boat is not on the Toms River. I grew up there!

Everybody needs two boats. One BIGG'UN and one LITT'LUN.

I couldn't agree more...
