Thread: What would you do?

We love going to the Gulf, however today my wife threw me a curve. "Maybe we should spend our vacation money and buy a boat instead".
(3 - 4 thousand dollars) We have great fishing up here on Lake Superior...but I also want to fish the Pier again! Aaaargghh!

Buy the boat and bring it down here and fish the bays and the ICW. Tell her you're saving a bundle on pier fees.

Why didn't I think of that! LOL!

GET THA BOAT! While they can open your options on what you can fish for and where. Just remember they be like swimming pools...endless money pit.

buying the first boat is the happiest time ever .....till you sell it

Thanks Snake, I really am leaning towards the boat, no matter how much I want to get back to the Pier. In the back of my mind is the old thought about the two best days in the life of a boat owner are the day you buy the boat and the day you sell the boat.

I know ironman, but this may be my best chance at getting one...might have to throw caution to the wind!

vacations only last a week or so,you'll have whole summers on the boat to enjoy....I have a couple....one I haven't used for several years ....the fishing boat only a few times a year....the salt seems to spoil me and no desires to go in the fresh water when we get back on our spring trips ....but this year, I can see me going much more up here this spring since no trip again

Agree with the, "Happiest two days of a man's life---the day he buys his boat and the day he sells it."

Have had boats off and on all my life and it has always been a love/hate relationship

BOAT is actually an Acronym for...

Break
Out
Another
Thousand
