Post pictures of the boats you've owned!

Kind of a Throwback Thursday boat style. Post pictures of some of the boats you've owned over the years. Here's a few of mine dating back to about 2000, I had a few before that but they were mostly sailboats and skiffs.

He sold it to guy in Reno, who put a blown 540 in it. He had it at DS last year. It has been for sale on eBay a couple of times since then.

I replaced the transom in it and at that point realized if I put anymore money into it I would never get it back out so I sold it.

This will scare some of you, this is the kind of boat that my parents bought when I was 12, it's a 16' Arkansas Traveler w/40hp Johnson on it, it was the first and only boat they ever bought and it's what got me hooked on boating, learned to ski on the Mississippi dodging barges, that's nut now.

Cute cruiser boat!

I'd love to have it now, it would be a historical treasure, boats have come alone way in forty years.

My old Spectre the "Dirty 30"

My old Spectre the "Dirty 30"

I really wanted that boat but the timing wasn't right. Not sure what it sold for but I remember thinking the asking price seemed fair. If I get rid of the Daytona I would love to build one of these.

[270]

You know if 2FF posts in this thread it’ll go 100 pages easy. :biggrin:

That Daytona you had was bad ass Grads, perfect colors. :thumbup:

What engines were in that?

Thanks. It had 525's. I had scoops put on it when I built it because I had planned on putting blowers on them.

There's a 1998 Spectre 30 over on the OSO classifieds that looks pretty cherry for $48k. Seems like someone could steal it for a good price, pep up the motors, through some shorter lowers on it and have a pretty sweet ride!

[Sharp shooter]

It's staggering how many different boats some of you have had....

I can understand getting bored with -or- just choosing the wrong boat/s by accident, but 5+ boats seems like a lot (unless you're Cal Worthington RIP). So what's the story with you guys...? :)

[FormulaZR]

My first boat:

1971 Horizon 18' jet
Started life with a BB Olds, ended life with an LS1.
Good boat...but like most, not good on rough water.

Second (current) boat:

1995 Liberator 21' jet
Started life with a BBC, currently has LS1
Great boat.

I don't know shit about jet boat hulls and what works and what doesn't. Never owned a jet, driven a jet, or even ridden in a jet. But this hull has always been one of my favorite jet hulls.
Wonder if Sharp Shooter knows the story behind this hull? :wink_002:

Love this boat! I remember back when 2FF beat me to it. I thought about trying to track it down last winter when I was looking for a closed bow 21.

Chris do you have a youtube video of you firing up the jet? I saw one and commented on it a year or so ago.
