Aim? I'm aiming much farther than you with less money wrapped up.

If I'm aiming I must have bad depth perception because you are about a 50 yard shot and I'm aiming for a 200 yard shot. LMAO

You're just an idiot that likes to talk **** so I pick on you is all, don't take it personal tard.

Well, I had an interesting first night on the boat

Got it started, dad drove away with trailer. Started heading over to our lift and noticed that I was taking on water hard core. Haul *** to lift and get on and lift her out of the water.

Come to find out same place we had winterize/summerize our boat the past 9 years forgot to put in 3 of the 4 drain/manifold plugs. Water was spewing into the engine bay and everything else. Thankfully got it onto the lift and everything good to go before the warning beep came on for the engine overheating and shut it off immediately.

Draining of the water (unscrewed the drain plug in the back) took 25-30mins or so and took it for a short spin about 2 hrs later with no problems. Found out bilge pump is broken as well so scheduling an appointment for that. Will still take it out Saturday-Thursday as weather here is supposed to be super nice

I'm sorry, I laughed my *** off reading that. It's my biggest fear that I forget to put in the drain plug. I always double check to make sure as soon as I dump it in the water.

I can't wait to get a boat once we move down to Florida. I'm thinking a nice center console for the son and I to fish up in the black water rivers. I don't think I will be going out in the big water.

How did you like dealing with Nitrous Outlet? Chris set my kit up for me, putting it in right now and hope to have it tuned by next week.. I never did make it back to the track to see if my motor passes did any better..

We had the drain plug in the back in. It was just the manifold drain plugs in the engine bay that they forgot to hook up apparently the 9th year of servicing it doing the same thing

I have heard the horrors of other boaters when the shops took of their gas lines to drain gas and then forgot to hook it back up

I would recommend getting a nice boat your son can tube/wakeboard/kneeboard/ski behind and use it for fishing as well. Some of my fondest memories of life all started back in 2003 when I was 13 coming back from a trip to Colorado to seeing dad with a brand new 32' camper and the brand new Bayliner in the driveway. So many great memories with friends over the summers

I'm considering relocating to Okoboji like my parents have even though for me it would be a large pay cut after college. Get me anywhere a hop and a skip away from water and I'd be happy though

I have dealt with him on 2-3 different occasions. We had a faulty progressive controller and I **** you not they probably spent 2 hours with us making sure everything was hooked up properly/we were programming it correctly/etc... We ended up having to send it back and getting another but the time they spent far out weighed what they made on the transaction.

They get an A+ in my book.

My dad gave me his boat, and I'm such an idiot when I take it out with friends. Not an idiot like most people nowadays, and getting in trouble. I just get hammered with a million people out there and typically forget stuff. One time, I couldn't start it for a half hour because I had the boat in drive instead of neutral.

Last week I thought my buddies took care of all my lines, and I starting putting away with my anchor still down..

That is hilarious! You must have been plowed. I guess we could play the "most sober guy becomes the DD" game. Lots of bars had to get rid of the breathalyzer testing machines up here in Ames because too many people would try to get the highest BAC over their friends

That sounds like something we would do. Haha.

We don't take it far. My buddy lives on the canal, so we just putt out to the sandbar. It's a huge inland lake, so the chop gets bad from all the 45' offshore guys.

Nice, Anthony. It sounds similar out here. The 20' Bayliner is probably the smallest one or one of the smallest on our homeowners association lake hoist dock. I'd say the average is a 24'-26' boat. The water isn't terribly choppy though.

I still want a nice fun jet ski. I know it'll only be something I used for a few years and get too old or bored of, but I still want one. Buddy is coming up in 3 weekends with a pair of Seadoo RXT 260s to play around with.

I've never been the huge fisher. Too ADD. Always have to be doing something. If there isn't a bite within 30 minutes, I'm bored shitless
