I just sold our first boat (1986 Bayliner Capri 1600BR) and closed on our new family member (2013 Monterey 184FS). Got the strangest looks as I towed the old boat along the highway during a snowstorm. We can't wait for warmer weather to launch the new boat.

If I see one going down the road in the winter I just smile and chuckle to my self.

Did you trade in your old one or sell it outright? But nice upgrade for sure! Got to get some pics of the new rig for us.

We traded it in. Got a fair price and a fantastic deal on the Monterey. Here is a photo of the new boat . . .

Looks like the boat show bug bit you big time. I like the color, hope you have a great summer of boating. Put a small scrach somewhere now, it might help, after the first opps, sh-t, why did I do that.
