I love boats..... but they're expensive and they suck. for example- I bought an old POS 21' Starcraft center console2 years ago and spent ALL of last year doing the re-build. was down to the bare hull and started fressh. new wiring, composite framework. custom console, new stainless fuel tank, Taco leaning post and brandy-new HDS7 gps/ff unit. motor is an ol' Merc 150 balckMax that runs like hell- pushes it way past 50mph.
SO- this year I put the boat in and the prop spun the second I throttled up for the first time.
second time out the motor overheats (even thogu waterpump and thermostats are new).
now the Lowrance unit has $hit the bed for some unknown reason and will be gone 4-6 weeks for warranty.......
so yeah- boats suck
