Doing the whole loop? isn't 3-4 months doing it pretty quick?

Yes, talked to others who have done it. 6 months minimum and $60 grand. A past Commodore friend of mine is taking a year. I'm not sure how I can pull off 6 months. I'm working again. I'm going to push it out 5 years. Looked at a Albin trawler yesterday, to small. Looking for a 31 ranger, 32 Nordic or a small grand banks. No flybridge. Want it to fit in the Erie canal. Limited bridge heights. Want diesel engine and genny. Closed loop cooling. Momma wants a large fridge.

The guy who bought my boat will take possession Aug.1.
I just put 180 gallons of premium in it. He said, "Go out and burn it up, leave me a quarter tank" . So tomorrow I am off like a Prom dress!! No plan. But burn gas is my mission. Invited a boat load for a boat ride. The buyer is way cool.

Yacht or not. Still got the boat until Tuesday. The post office lost my documentation. Reapplied, takes 2 weeks minimum and $85 to redo. Mean time I bought a trolling motor for my new 2 year old bass boat.

Everybody tells me the same thing. Yet they take their wheeler/bike out a half dozen times at the beginning of summer, burn a few gallons through it and put it away till next year. I'll stick to sleds.

Come on ez only 4/hrs.!?......tell moma she needs to let you out more. Lol
Think I'm up to 16hrs but yea between work and weather tough to get out a lot.
Had a good long run few Saturdays ago, even filled up before gas went up!
don't get me started on my banshee that has not been run for 2 yrs. oh well the chit is all free and clear and there if I want to use it some day .at least the quads only take up about 6x4 of storage the boats what 10x30
yeah mama is the only reason I still own a boat. this summer I have been spending all my free time building a new front porch on the house . getting prepped for when I get old and need some place to rock and watch life pass me by. I need to learn to widdel between now and then

I am currently with out a lake Michigan boat. Sold to one of the head honchos that is in charge of highway paving in Michigan. Yes think of me when you see orange barrels. Motor home next? Toy hauler?
where are u boating ? have not seen a crew of boats like that together around my parts ever. looks like it could be a wild river run with that crew. I would deff fire up the boat for that
