Ummmm, well with that much money I might want two boats.;)
I'd first fly right to Douglas, MI and order my Skater 368 or 388 w/Merc. 1100 turbos/M8s. I'm not sure if I'd go with a wild paint scheme or just go all white w/white interior w/black pinstripes. I really like the Lugo trailers..:thumbup:
I would also buy a smaller, Eliminator 27 Speedster w/ a single Merc. 700pkg. Just a smaller mid-sized cat for a cruise around on the lake, without the extreme cleanup and maintenance of the larger Skater. My gelcoat design would be similar to the larger boat, either wild and extreme or just all white... I'd either go with a lugo or extreme trailer.:thumbup:
Two words "Lady Lisa".................WOW

You should see her in person (80' Nortech), she comes on some of the fun runs down here, it is the most beautiful boat I've ever seen, this is her passing us heading out to the Gulf a weeks ago, I got a chubby................thanks PR
58 Ocean Super Sport to fish
38-50 whatever to get to fishing boat without wasting time getting there...that's what the crew is for
And then buy/start a boat co. just to have the excuse of always trying new things without the tax implications of making an actual personal purchase.

Btw, have you ever visited the Nortech shop or fastboats.com? If I'm ever in FL I've always wanted to check out both. I've always been a fan of the Nortech 36 cats, and I still remember them bringing their 2 canopy cats, Ballistic and Dangerzone to the 2006 DS poker run... Those two boats, at that time, were just amazing in person, and everyone out west loved the wild paint schemes!
I totally agree!!Quote:

I would go but "Allez Viette" and pit some big custom power in it with X drives or order a brand new Cheif

I agree on the sport fishing like a viking or something along those lines....Something to get me to Cabo for some Big Yellowfin....Quote:

MasterCraft x-80
Some ridiculously overpowered ski race boat (either a Force from Australia, or a Bernico from Belgium) #6 drive and 800" twin turbo from boostpower
Big houseboat on Powell!
Beyond that, would depend on where I end up living.
Not yet, we've only had the Florida place for less than a year and between working on the house when we first got here and then winter boating with the Ft. Myers powerboat club, then going back to LOTO for a few weeks this Summer, we've been on the run, but it's on my list, I've heard nothing but cool stuff about it.Quote:

I would build an old Howard cruiser so nice it would make all the Schiada lovers jealous. After that I don't know. I think I would just build boats that were different and that people think won't work.

I would get something like this and cruise the channel.

Prob something in the 75 ft to 85 ft.
