what was yalls first boat and first outboard at what age

[Flex]

1987 Sea Nymph 17, mod v with a merc 35.

When I was in middle school my grandma would take me to do yard work for all the old women at her church in Maplewood. One old lady had the boat, had bought it new in 87, used once, hurt her back, drained fluids and parked in garage. Sat there about 10 years. I asked her about selling one day, she said she'd never thought about it and asked what i would give. Settled on 900$! Ran that boat until summer after high school when the motor gave out.

Parked in the barn as I had a ski boat after that, went back through, rebuilt the entire thing and repowered a few years ago. Love this boat. Runs fast, shallow, good on fuel.
