Spring has sprung?
We are trying to decide if it is even reasonable to expect that we would have any additional time for another toy (especially up at the cabin in the summer, it sure would be nice). Buying used helps shave a lot of money, and it is a pretty good buyers market right now for a lot of things. Job situations and economy are always a concern, but I think right now, it is probably not a bad thing to be in a little bit of debt if you can continue to respond to short term emergency cash flow needs. Anyway, we are considering a 2006 19' Bayliner 195 Classic Runabout, just to play on the water with the kids. Not that they/we don't have ENOUGH hobbies and diversions, especially with how much the kids have been enjoying riding the motorbikes.We actually took the plunge and and went ahead and bought it. Not sure what we are going to do with it now...it won't fit in our garage down here...

We decided against getting a boat, for the time being. We were close, but it was just a lot of money for a 4-cylinder. It probably would have been enough for us, but we'll wait.
...and we reconsidered after a week, and decided to get it (still not sure that was a good idea, but it should be fun). Pictures posted above.
With the boat, we got a couple ski ropes, dock bouys, life vests, tubes, and some other stuff. Plus, a 2005 Liquid Force Search 143 wakeboard with bindings. http://www.wakeworld.com/boardguide/getboard6.asp?ProductID=2506
...and someone at work had a 2003 O'Brien Buzz 140 for $70 that should work for a little smaller person and different stance.
