I already know that you cannot imagine people being happy. I love my wife and boat and we have a great time. Yes, I paid more for the boat than you have paid for all of your Juan Gonzalez cards put together. I really can imagine what you think of someone spending 225K cash on a used boat but that is actually not a lot of money for a quality boat. I could not afford to buy this boat new. That was the used boat price at the time I bought it in 2006. The boat is a 2003 model and I keep it in excellent condition because we go out to sea regularly. The boat has two Crusader 385 HP engines and I cruise at about 3,000 rpm which is about 22 knots or about 25 mph. I burn about 12 gallons per hour for each engine at cruise speed.

" I pay $800 for a 1/2 tank of fuel " are you using av gas? fuels that contain ethanol can get real nasty in a very short time. or do you use SeaFoam? " I really can imagine what you think of someone spending 225K cash on a used boat "
this is what i think about that, RICH PEOPLE
