Ah yes, I keep forgetting about the advantage of V drives. My cousins just bought a Mastercraft (I always forget them for some reason) - they make nice boats!
Too late for me though I already have a crush, a Moomba is definitely in my future once I figure out how to pay for one. I've seen several old Correct Craft, MB, Brendellas, Nautiques and Moomba Boomerangs for great prices - but all closed bow. I would have been able to get away with that for a first boat, but no chance of that now with a wife and three draggable kids.
Since joining this forum I've become painfully aware of the price difference of used boats in the states. My current boat actually spent most of it's life in the states, but I bought it local. I need to make really good friends with someone down there
I've never been to Ghost - I hear it's really cold water?
