Going to check out a '93 tomorrow

Thanks, guys.

Well, it's in great shape. I love it. (I didn't tell the salesman that, of course.) I came close to making an offer, but held back. I'm torn between being the responsible father/provider that should get some out of some lingering debt and make improvements to the house, and the other part of fisherman/boater that says, live for today, that's what financing is for. There's an '83 that I'm keeping tabs on for $5500. There is easily way more than $4300 worth of repairs and renovation to match the condition of this one I looked at today. This boat doesn't need anything, was obviously well cared for, and I like the differences between the V21 and the V20. I forgot to ask about the compression, but that can be a condition of the sale.

I want to pull the trigger, but I have to think about my family, too. So, I'm sure you guys have been there before when it comes to these expensive toys: did you listen to your heart or did you listen to the Admiral?hh
