so it's a win win situation. Go for the the maycraft and say "see honey I saved money" (just like they do when the go shopping, even though spending is spending).
Although, just like my "granted permission slip" for a new Judge, I'll be cleaning up the old Mako 17 for another season.

Permission Slip to Buy a Grady Approved
Eminent Brothers:
My Lovely Bride and I went to the Ocean City Boat Show on Saturday and as unbelievible as it seems, granted me a permissiom slip to buy a Grady Freedom 225. It was on sale for $89k a savings of 9k over the regular price!!! WHAT a WASTE of a perission slip.......even if I had $89k, that's a lot of money for a 22.5' boat. The Parker 23 sport cabin was $77k and the MayCraft 25 Pilot was $66k.

You both ought to take the lovely ladies to Denton next Sat (Mar 3) and see what they have at the Judge open house. if the food doesn't get you drooling, something else there is likely to do so.

You buy a Grady and (speaking on behalf of all Parker owners) you must turn in your Man-Card!

They like to dangle that carrot, don't they?
I took my #1 girl down on friday..
While testing out the seat in front of the console on the Whaler Outrage 32' she says, "I like this one.."
I guess you do, for $220,000!

I can only wish for a Man-Card!....All I have is a Visa-Card, which I use often on my pitiful 18' Trophy with Force motor.

Have boats gotten absurdly expensive or is it just me? I don't recall an average boat costing 4 or 5 times the average car.
