Thanks guys. I've read through most of those posts. Are there any need to have options I should keep an eye out for on some of the boats? Bridge AC for example.

Yes, I was wondering what someone could expect. I gather, with proper maintenance and care the QSC500...
Thanks in advance.
Just started searching and looking at 2006-2008 sedan bridges.
How much time are folks getting out of the qsc500 engines between overhauls?
What is the typical fuel consumption at cruise?
Adequate storage, enough AC's on board, does a hydraulic swim platform slow the boat...
I chartered a 47' Powercat from the Moorings in the BVI's last May. Awesome trip awesome boat. I've done the BVI's a few times now and I'll answer any question I can.
What year is it? I love the 70's boats and have been looking at a few myself. Here's a website for them http://www.jetboatperformance.com/index.php?p=boats
Never even considered that. That guy took a chance of having his bell rung on the ground. That guy was in real fear.
Kind of had the opposite happen. I flew with three friends (one of which owned the plane) to an airshow once. Their all private pilots and I have an airline background. They...
When we stayed there it was much more rustic. We'd drive a 22' Aquasport over filled with beer hidden in our bags. Then it was drink beer, fish and swim for week.
There's a two story house in your last pic. That house used to belong to my best friends grandfather while we were kids. We stayed there every year for our spring breaks during high school.
My neighbor owns the lot. I asked his permission and he said it was a good idea. It's an acre wooded lot that's fenced in. I live in Ocala. I'm seeing your points on the liability issue.
Next time your at the dock have your wife show Joe and his wife her tits. When his wife has a funny look say what's the matter isn't that what you asked for Joe. Then say Joe we can be friends, but the next time you talk to my wife that way I'm going to kick your teeth in.
Or
Next time you see...
Wayne, thanks for sharing your situation and god bless you.

You hit it square on the head on that. In the last six months I've had a drunk drive his car through my front yard stop in my drive way back up and almost drive through the side of my house. He...
All three of my batteries read 12.5 volts. The wire at the alternators read 12.5. The port engine drops to 10 volts at idle on the dash gauge then the alarm comes on for low voltage. The alternator reads 14.5 volts going out. When you run the throttle up or get on plane the port volt gauge...
Good times in Sarasota for the 4th. Lots of boats not too crazy though. They launch the fireworks off of a city park right in front of Marina Jacks. We get a slip every year at Marina Jacks. The bay outside of Marina Jacks will get packed with boats watching the fireworks. Stick around for...
Long weekend was cut short when I idled past the dock the port engine shut off. I restarted it and the fuel pump was making loud whining noise. The motor continued to run so I pushed the throttles up and motor died. I thought fuel pump died. Loaded up and came home. At home I realized this a...
