Just wanted to see everyones rigs they go to the lake with. Mine is a 05 Titan and 1996 Skeeter 17.6 ft bass boat with a 135hp Mariner. Bought this boat new in 1995 for a graduation present for myself.
Good to see there are people who take care of their stuff. Boats will run forever and stay looking new if you put in the work. Every boat my dad and I have owned sold for more than we bought it for.
I don't have a boat of my own but always end up using my T to tow my friends' lol. Here's my friend's 25' sea ox, an older, heavy hull with a new 250 E-Tec. It's almost 7K when we spearfish, loaded with fuel (150 gallons) dive tanks (12 @ 25 lbs a piece) dive gear and sometimes close to 200 lbs of grouper .
You care barely see my T but hey lol. I'll get some more from my other friends, one has a 16ft flats skiff and another a 25' Mako center console.

At Beachside, That Skeeter has seen some use also. I have re-done the carpet with padding for the feet, seats were re-done last year and painted the trailer with new wheels. I gave 14.4K for that boat in 95 and now it would be well over 23K. I figured I would just keep it and repower one day when the time comes. The boat never sits outside either, sun kills glass. Thanks for the compliments...
my daughters first boat.. i kinda dig the convenience of a throw it in the bed boat tho, it has come in handy more than once jumping in the truck, driving to water, launch, and towing a friend in.
