So my husband buys me a new (to me) boat...

[Silk]

I AM HAVING SO MUCH FUN THIS SUMMER!!!!

I have taken that thing out so much on the lake, been fishing, tubing with the kids, more fishing. I have learned to dock it myself into a pretty tight marina (with an audience no less) and I couldn't be more happy.

Initally I was a bit worried as it wouldn't start after the intial test drive in late April, but after a quick change of the corroded distributor cap, it has run like a dream ever since.

I'm in love with my boat, yes, I love my husband, but this past weekend, he was golfing in a tournament and his wife (me) was out on the boat FISHING!!!!.

We kept our old Green Ghetto boat, because, my husband is rather fond of it...but I get the red rocket!!!

Okay, just wanted to give an update to my original "So my huband buys a boat" thread 6 months ago

Smart man he is. I only say this because I did the same. I inherited a boat and gave it to my Lady. All the money and time I put into the boat, I get a big "Thank You". Love it!

Smart man he is. I found my wife loves driving the boat so I now have a voice activated auto pilot.

Ha, I realized that I have hardly any pictures of "the boat" as I'm always inside of it with the camera enjoying the darn thing.
So here it is on a trailer (nothing fancy but it sure does move out) it is a 93 Forester w/a 4.3l V6 and it is in immaculate condition, people who owned it took very good care of it inside and out. Original upholstery is still in good shape. I have also included pics of us just enjoying it. Sorry Lipp older sister is married too

Well, my husband is stubborn, pig headed, has a conflict of interest between the head on his shoulders and the "other" one. He likes watching things blow up in movies, he a fast fish filleter and a wonderful partner in all regards. He hails from Iran, but if you cut him, I'm pretty sure he would bleed red, white and blue, he never took a dime in welfare and slept in his car while going to college back in the late 70's. He held the US National title in his weight division on Taekwondo(now 7th Dan) and owns his own business. I call him my Persian red neck because really, at times that is exactly what he is. He's got a man card, he just knows how to treat his woman. And his woman likes boats and fishing!!!

I guess your boat has pretty good acceleration. Might want to remind the kids to sit down first before you nail the throttle...
