I just bought a 19 ft. Sea Ray 190 used today with 110 hrs on it. Boat are real cheap at this time. Sub prime boats I guess. I wanted something to take to Powell and Mead when I have the time.

I gave up throwing money into my "hole in the water" and now am the proud owner of a "Money Pit".

We've been boaters and campers for almost 20 years. Moved up the boating ladder until we bought our 36 foot Carver Mariner. We lived on it from May to October for 7 years. Camped during the off season. We sold the boat just before the gas price explosion and now do the same thing, just with a motorhome.
I will never forget the memories of those trips Down East Maine, those solitary islands, the smells, the sounds...they can never be duplicated in the RV. I still miss it but I don't regret moving on.

We have Key Largo 190 CC w/merc 150. On weekends that we are not camping then we are boating. Cheaper for us to boat than camp nowadays.

Shame on you. You could rent nice houseboat at Powell Lake for mere $12,000 a week.
I am thinking of taking my 23' cruiser there at the end of this summer. Have been there 6 years ago.

We plane a few trips with boat (17 ft Bass boat ) and TT (27 FT ) each year. We are looking for a used 19 ft bowrider as the family is getting bigger.
