2' idus

Anyone else get a severe case of 2' idus during the season? During the winter I love my boat. During the season I suddenly need a 36 Wesmac, and I am thinking of ways to sell my house. Its a problem.

I've been happy with my boat for about 30 years now. She does everything I ask of her.

Loved my Sea Hunt just over 20' CC. I could go alone or with a couple of other guys. Block, Brenton, Watch Hill all NP. I had a Yami 4 stroke 115 and the only thing I would have changed is a move up to a 150 4 Stroke.

No boat, back in the suds.

My boat suits my needs pretty well....but my retirement plan is to build another in the 21' - 25' range for more offshore capability.....this one is on the short list but I'm still looking at others.
