The best thing about a boat/yacht is that someone else owns it. So yes buy it and take us broke SBRers on it!

If you have the money to part with go for it.

Of course do your homework like Harry already suggested.

Let us know and post pics!

I bought a yacht with the profits from fading seaweed not too long ago.

[pilebuck13]

Boats are money pits if it seems to good to be true it probably is good luck

this thread is eye opening in many regards

Best days to own a boat are the day you buy it, and the day you sell it. Fuel costs will kill you. If you use it enough to justify the cost, gas bill becomes ridiculous. If you dont use it much, whats the point?

With that said, I worked with two docs that owned yachts and they both loved owning them and hosting parties. That said, they both made millions/year and had been for at least a decade

$1,000?

If he’s looking at a real boat, $1,000 is the monthly moorage fee

[Shute]

Boats are a lot of fun if you have the time to enjoy them

[MaltedHopsFrenzy]

[MinnesotaFats]

Dude depends where u buy

In SWFL theres yacht shows 2xs a year and the best part is you can get guaranteed hours and free service for x# of years

You buy from some random and you'll be spending out your ass to keep that thing floating

A good deal perhaps, but saving on slip fees, motor repairs and all the minor shit that kills the salt life vibe is what drives ppl to sell boats

Well at least it's someone else in your story who's incredibly rich and successful so you're getting better

Fatty I spend a lot of time in Southwest Florida, where and when are these yacht shows I'm very interested?

You only plan on taking it out 5-6 times a year? And you're up in Canada right?

Not even worth the maintenance and additional fees. You don't know what you're getting yourself into.

I have to agree, you would be better off renting 5-6 times per year.

[gauchojake]

guy drops 15k a game and you guys are worried about gas

was thinking i could rent out the boat for most of the season.

[BrickJames]

I used to own a 26.5 foot cabin cuddy.

Speaking from experience a boat is definitely not something you want to be renting out.

Yep. All my buddy ever talked about is how pissed off he was for buying this boat... because his wife begged him too. I don't know much about boats... but from what I remember... it was a 40 footer... twin engine. He said when you breakdown the cost from bringing it to the lake you're at.... docking it.... insurance.... and then taking it out of the water at the end of the season..... then storing it... he said what a pain in the fukking ass. (Not even joking.... exact words.) He did it for 3 straight seasons.... he said thank goodness someone bought it off me.

Not to mention the $300 you drop every weekend in gas

[RudyRuetigger]

I just hope biggie and ttwarrior don't get on a boat at the same time

Then yacht to get off asap
