I'll be out there this weekend and take some pictures. The avatar is the only one that I have now (it's from the craigslist add).

Re: Have to tell the wife eventually!!

If you have gotten away with it this long just wait until summer and then say, "lets go look at a boat or two" Then tell her you got this one at a real steal and couldnt pass it up. Just dont mention the date at which this transaction took place and your in the clear. Unless your kids are like mine and they will bust you out. They get a real kick watching old Dad squirm. But Ive busted them a few times so maybe we are even on that.

Good idea:rolleyes:

Just put a bow on it, take her out there on Christmas morning and say, "Merry Christmas, baby!"

She'll love it! ;)

Glad to hear it went well! Sounds like a super wife.

I was going to suggest you bring up this post. Say..lookie here, honey. This poor guy! He bought a boat and is wondering how to break to his wife. Here's some of the suggestions. What do you think??....:rolleyes:

She just finished reading the post. She was dying laughing, but said she's going to kill me!!! She wanted to me to tell you guys that we're going couch shopping tomorrow (and maybe to the jewelry store)!!:eek:

So since that worked out so well, should I tell my wife that I flipped a coin for the down money on our current house??? Nah, she already knows that.
Good on you and you are a lucky man!

So if you have a house and a farm with the barn that you rent out, it sounds like money is not an issue so a boat should be no problem! As it turned out to be... Funny she found out first though. Wives are sneaky that way!

Thanks....I should have said that the bank and I have a house and a farm with a barn! If money wasn't an issue I wouldn't have to wait until spring. I would move somewhere where it's always summer!!! Wouldn't that be nice?

Park it in the driveway with a card addressed to her saying you're sorry, the relationship is over, and asking her to keep quiet ..... then sign it Tiger Woods... then accuse her of being unfaithful, but willing to forget about it if she promises to never do it again.. :)

Oh yeah, I remember now why I'm divorced....

Update - I told her that I had been thinking of naming the boat "Suprise"! She didn't think that was as funny. I've got a great wife!

This thread is hillarious!

Surprise is the perfect name for the boat...:D

BLUF, your gonna get caught regardless. But, I would wait until after the holidays and then bite the bullet. Why create more lies, just wait until after the new year and tell her and get it off your shoulders and move on. I buy small things and the wife never knows but a boat, dude, you gotta fess up because the longer you wait, the more you're going to pay. Good Luck.
