oh yeah makes sense esp with that warrenty you can't go wrong there. yeah let me know how it does cause i'll be wheeling mine around by hand a fair amount to get it into the corner of the garage!

Just think of all the times the wife went shopping and comes home with bags of nonbargain items. You should get a turn every few years. Also it will make you happy since it is winter right now and cold out.

You are exactly right! And that is what I am going to say when all of this stuff shows up at the door while I am at the office.

I feel your pain! I just know the wife is keeping count of all my latest spending, and is getting ready to pay me back so-to-speak. She's been eyeing a $2500 down Sectional for our game room. She says at least the couch is something every one can use. I told her that we all use the boat too! She just doesn't get it. We need retail (wholesale) therapy too!

My has done 2 things over the last few years.

1. stopped snooping in the garage (my domain)

2. stopped asking where this or that came from.

Sled, maybe my wife could take some pointers from yours.

Dude, Love to help ya, but some things just work and I don't ask why So for this reason I don't throw rocks at the hornets nest while they are at rest if you get what I mean

LOL yea I know what you mean. She tried to use the logic the other day that If I squirreled money and didn't spend it on the boat we could buy the couch she wanted. Ppfffft... RIIIIIIIIGHT.
She said the boat is fine just the way it is. I just turned around and walked away. I didn't even want to try to explain it to her.

Haha! That is an argument right there that we will NEVER win.

"The boat is just fine the way it is."

If I had a quarter for every time I heard that....well you get the point.

True boat/water enthusiasts understand that boats are money pits. Period. But the money I am pouring into this this "pit" is also being used as time with my family. My children will grow up spending time with Mom and Ole Dad on the weekends for the most part instead of many other things they could be doing. This crazy investment of mine brings all of us closer together with the time I will teach my kids how to ski, swim, and take care of nature. As well "date nights" for just the wifey and I. Nothing better than the night rides.

Yeah, yeah, I probably spend too much money on the boat, but as long as the bills are paid, and my savings stay padded, then I have no problem with it.
