Just my personal opinion here after 50+ years of boating on the Great Lakes a minimum boat for me would be 24'. You can go out on smaller boats and I have but you really have to keep an eye on the weather. I have an 18' boat now and I have gone out on Lake Erie with it on good days.
Just got the first dose of the Shingrix vaccine on Friday. 2nd dose in 2 months. Only side effect from the 1st dose was a sore arm for a couple of days. Feeling fine now.
No, he stated his boat has an 8' 5" beam going into a 9' 5" slip. Boat will fit fine. Will be tight but IMO doable. It sounds like the slip is in a Yacht Club so that IMO would also be a good thing. I would have no problems going into that slip. I've been in tight slips before.
Maybe this will help.
I ended up with the Tahoe with the 75 HP motor. I really liked the boat but I had lots of problems with the motor. Boat spent most of the 22 season in the shop trying to get the motor to run. Of the 10 times I got the boat out that season it only ran 4 of those. I traded...
I have a 2022 Stingray 182 SC I purchased last fall at a boat show. I just ended my first season with the boat. No issues and looking forward to season 2 next year. Check out Stingray.
Automated balls and strikes will probably happen some day. When you have umpires like Angel Hernandez calling strikes on balls a foot off the plate it's time to look at automated calls.
