I like every type of boat. If I had unlimited funds I would probably have several different types for everything from river running to being in the ocean. :)

I don't "hate" any type of boat particularly. I do think people cruising the river in offshore boats look like complete dorks, but I don't "hate" the boat because of it.
For me, it's all about the rush. The bigger rush your boat can give me the more I'll probably like it. :thumbsUp:
The only type of boat MM doesn't like is one he has to pay for :DQuote:

Ok, I'll bite on this one but I've erased what I've written 3 times and got myself all pissed off and shit thinking of past examples and I havent even had a drink yet. So now I will just summarize by saying that I dont hate boats, just the assholes that operate them with no respect for how their actions affect other boaters/skiers/etc. Nuff said. cya
Louder and faster never equals bigger. Just sayin... :DQuote:

if it floats and has a motor thats all you can ask for
When a boat has a rusty smile on the side of the block from forgetting to winterize....I hate it.
When a boat carries one or more bikini clad buxom beauties, I like it.
When it's an overloaded loud and drunken sausage fest it usually gives plenty of reasons to hate it.
If it's towing me back to the ramp because of a bad kill switch, regardless of what is stated above....I like it.
Well Said.Quote:

The same goes for the knuckleheads at the boat launch. If your new to boating and are clueless on how to back down a boat, take that thing to a big empty parking lot near where you live and practice till you figure it out. I taught my 16 year old son how to do this at one of the casino parking lots last summer. Then I let him step up to the plate and launch the boat at Katherines, no big deal!!!
My blood is starting to boil gotta go...
So true Paul. And I like free rides and free drinks. Hint hint. :)Quote:

And with that said I won’t bag on anyone’s Boat no matter how bad IMO it might be ie: looks, condition, gel, type propulsion etc. We’re all out on the water to have a good time, that’s really what it’s all about.
The hate part is where the intended use is misused and or compromised. This might require a new Tread:hmmm:
No prejudices...
but
most sail boaters I have met or know deserve to be hated on
and
majority of pwc riders encountered need hat and/or worse
and that is coming from someone who has rode jet skid for 20+ years
even owned a "sit down" for a few years
While I am not a particular category boat hater, I do dislike disproportionately sized boats on smaller bodies of water. I.E. 30'+ boats at Parker...not a fan.
Are you saying a 42' Fountain in Parker would fall in to that category? :DQuote:
