I have had three other boats but they have all been on going projects that have rquired alot of work for a good day on the water. My last boat left me stranded in the middel of the lake with no other boats around so i had to paddel it back for what i would say was about 1 mile and thats not easy on a 17' bowrider. The seabreez that came in at 2 oclock made the last 50 yard the worst. The other time it left me in the middel of the lake at 10pm in april and i had to spend the night with nothing but my swimtrunks so i was cold all night. I was finaly able to talk the wife into something nice so i bought a 1999 Aquasport 175 Osprey. I love this boat. Its nice not to have to spend hours in the driveway makin sure i have the problem of the week fixed befor i go out. I live 5 min from the lake and 1 hour from the coast so i put alot of hours on my boat in a year, I make it out to the water atleast once a week. I am so happy to finaly have something nice that i do not have to work on all the time. This boat rides like a dream in rough water. The wife drove it today and actually said she likes drivin this one, she said it was so much easyer to control then the other 3 boats. I'm also stoked to have a CC boat like i have always wanted because i love to fish the flats and i have my first fishingtrip planed for this boat next saterday with dad and father-inlaw. I'm just so happy about this boat and had to make a post.
