buying an 2000 X22, need opinions

Isn't paying off a boat sort of an oxymoron?  

It's actually the day he buys the boat and the day he sells it... But this guy's just bitter because nobody told him that boats are an endless money pit.

I knew what I was getting into, and love every day of it.

Agree to both. I'm happy each day I look over the fence and think of what's under the blue tarp. Been waiting a long time for a boat, and never figured we'd end up with one this nice.

I'm in Kauai this week for work, and even though it's a paradise, I would claerly not trade the boat trips for more Hawaii trips.

Update: I'll have the boat home tomorrow after much delima with finding the right lender and the right insurance company and getting all the paper work finalized. YIPPEEEE  I'll post the pics up tomorrow when she is home.  BTW, he wouldn't budge at $22,500 but I am a very happy buyer.  The only option the boat didn't have was the shower and the boat is like new and only has 135 hours.

BTW we went with Encore Bank of Houston as the lender and they were very nice and helpful and we went with Voyager for the Insurance for a nice low premium of $363 per year with $500 deductable/$100K liability/Personal Property $1000/Trailer $1500/$23000 on boat. Year round coverage

That is a steal for that boat. It looks perfect.
