76k just seems like a lot. Never paid that much for a boat. I have the bank roll but am considering financing half. Not sure if that’s a smart move…..But cash is king.

Take 76k and put it in the SP 500 make 10% return 7500 a year plus 3k worth of operating expenses a year is 10500 a year to go on 10 charter trips per year and limit out each time.

shite baw, that’s scarier than upgrading.
The challenge is….this is an upgrade for me. I live on the water and have a slip. Enjoy fishing a shite ton but also ski, pleasure boat, and entertain. I’m on the boat 3 days of the week at least…weather permitting.

What other boats are you considering ?
Posted on 11/9/24 at 7:53 pm to Doby
Do it. I'm looking to buy one myself soon.

@Stexas…. Typos are accepted while drinking. Everyone knows this.

I want to jump on the 2300 because it’s a great deal. Willing to sacrifice two feet in the meantime and go bigger in a few years.

Typos are always acceptable drinking or not. Hope you get the boat and enjoy it.

I won't talk you out of it. I couldn't imagine not having a boat.
They've gotten pricey.
Only people that believe this are ones that don't actually use them.
