Boat show blues? Not here!

[Franco]

You know there is another side of the coin. When I moved from Virginia to Florida I gave up my shop. I had 600 sq ft that I could put my V20 in and stand up at the helm and not whack my head on the ceiling. I had got so busy with packing and moving I got behind on the project. Once I got the boat to Fla, I found I was spending way more a month than my new boat payment is now. I never got to take the boat out here 'cause I was always working on it. Since I got the new boat I have probably 50 hours on the water, not bad for weekends only and usually just 1 day a weekend. I have no complaints with my V20. It's what I will compare all other boats to the rest of my boating life. And it was 23 years old when I got rid of it. The fella at the dealer where I traded in my boat is going to keep it and do a MJ special. He is gonna pull the I/O and fix the hole and hang a bracket. He has a great starting point with my old boat.
