Show us your boat
I thought it may be fun for us to post photos of our pride and joys. Not just to show off what you have, but so maybe we can recognize each other out on the lake or in our own marinas. Lets see what ya got and add what you like/dislike about your boat. It may help others who are considering buying a boat or trading for something different.
