My first boat was actually one I grew up in that was later given to me in 2007 to 2008. 1979 ski nautique. Parents bought it in 84, I was born in 88, did a stringer job in 08 or 09 i think. Spent about 3k an 1 years worth of work rebuilding it. Still have the 79 today. Learned to kneeboard an then wakeboard. Learned how to wake 2 wake on the ski pole.

Age 25
Year 2013 to 14
Boat 07 236 TE
Bought my dream boat... But got the itch for a g23 in the next 2years.

first boat was a 1989 Ski Nautique 2001 at 27 years old back, in 2012/2013. (bought boat with 880 hours, used it up to 1400 hrs)

second boat was/is a 1998 Nautique Super Sport, purchased in 2015/2016 being 30 years old. (bought boat with 440 hours, currently 980 hrs )

looking for a third upgrade this or next year!

During the last 3/4 years, and having spent more than 1100 hours on the water, I can say without a doubt Boating life is great!
