Ahhhh come on, who wouldn't.....

Do you ever let friends or relatives borrow your #boat?

[toodeep]

nope unless someone is broke down.

[Spunt Drag]

Yea. But only a select few.

[Lake Chuck Duck]

I really wouldnt feel comfortable with it but I may would consider to just a couple people. People that I know would take as good of care as I try to. I would still be very uneasy.

Its one thing when you tear up your own stuff, but its another thing when someone else does it.

Exactly. But I would rather tear up my own stuff than someone else's. It would have to be someone that I know is careful and would take responsibility for any damage.

What if the person borrowing your boat has a costly breakdown (though no fault of there own). I know deep down I would still blame them.

I can only think of one friend that I would let. Family...... No way in Hell.

[T-TOP]

Would let, brother, ex brother in-law, ex father in-law, probably 4 close friends. All experienced boaters. Wouldn't let anyone that doesn't have experience in a boat of equal size and horsepower borrow it.

[Top Dawg]

I'll let most my close friends take mine. And ill take Spunt Drags and run it like I stole it!

Who needs enemies wit friends like these. On another note, the last time we went to Toledo bend, I had to get somebody to pull my boat home because of extenuating circumstances. Well I get back in town and find my boat and trailer parked 3 houses down from mine. These are good friends who have been to my house several times and clearly know where I live. Luckily the people weren't home. Some people you can't even trust to park your **** at the right house, much less operate it in navigable waters.

Now that's just wrong..You can never let someone borrow anything without them destroying it are breaking a switch, How can people be so dang ignorant?? You learn as you go, Never make that same mistake...

[sparkyc4]

I'll let a few close friends and family use my kayak. When I had my offshore boat...only 1 other person I would let use it.

[MathGeek]

I've let friends and neighbors borrow my tiller driven 16 ft aluminum v hull. It's pretty rugged and you'd have to work pretty hard to mess it up.

[Andy C]

Only two people have ever borrowed my boat and I have borrowed theres,very close friends. And we have an understanding if if you break it fix it. No matter what gos wrong been working for us 7-8 year's now

[goldenrod]

Yep, would let close friends

[BIG-C]

I have in the past but never again,Lil-c will be the only one that can use it.

[MarshRat89]

I don't even borrow my dad's. I have I'm the past but, I won't anymore. I don't want to be responsible if anything would happen. I know I don't have 30k to replace it if something does.

I've always looked at it this way, if someone needs to borrow my truck, absolutely. That means they need it. Nobody "needs" to borrow a boat.

[BIG-C]

I wouldn't evn let my wife use it.
