I am going to keep the boat for the rest of the year and see how I feel in January. If that 300 SHO is out I may see about trading mine in. It would be smart to keep it another year. That being said if it happens again my wife will make me get a new one.

Speaking of junk do not get me started on a Talon anchor system that is another long story.
Whats up with the anchor, Im exp. probs as well?
