And no, it's not porn.

I look at boats all frickin' day and obviously can't afford them. Pretty sure if I hit the powerball, i would spend it all on boats immediately. Is there any type of support/buddy system to help me? Does anyone else have this problem? TIA

You're not alone on that one. If I were to win a bunch of money, I already have a boat or combination of boats picked out depending on how much it is

Since I got a bow I've just been looking at bows lately. Haven't even hunted one bow season and I'm already looking to buy a new one

I could blow however much money I had no matter how much it was on boats.

Easily.

Buy the boat and tell your old lady to be happy you weren't looking at porn.

My back is throbbing from sitting on my computer and scrolling through page after page of new and used boats on boattrader.com

I would do the same as for my Jeep and just put in a few bucks at a time to get me somewhere close. I would be completely content with having it parked in my driveway all day everyday. I can use it as a parade float, pussy magnet, or hell...maybe even cruise to prop stop a few times a year.

The only way to stop wanting a boat is to buy one. Once it strands you a couple times and stars only half the time, you'll start not liking them as much.









I know the addiction though. I can't wait to get a new one.

Pretty good deal the both of y'all have got.

Especially being spoiled with the GOM in our back yard, I feel like I'm obligated to own a boat or 15 at some point in my extremely exciting life. Sucks for people who have to stay on land all summer.

we are probably gonna end up getting a shearwater which is my dream boat currently. We have also discussed him getting a lower end bay boat by himself and then me getting a bowrider to cruise the river and hit the prop stop etc. And then share both boats depending on what we had planned for the weekend
