Sold my 342 last week guys. Been doing this for a long time......spring time and fall time is tied up getting the boat ready for summer, then winterized and it's time I do something else with my life.  I may get back into it at some point....who knows.
Thanx for all the help throughout my tenure here on the site and hope that my contributions have helped some of you.

Don't let the anchor bring up the bottom of the boat......tootles for now!

    I get it as I'm in the same "boat" (or not) so to speak. For some of the same reasons. Stay in touch, good people here.

    Good luck on your next chapter! Make sure you keep a friend who owns a boat close to you, so you can get a taste once in a while.

    It certainly is bittersweet for me. It is something that I've truly enjoyed but just kind of lost gump for it the last couple of years and really wanted to do other things with my life. I got back into motorcycling and bought a Harley, I want to do some touring with that. I toured the U.S. on my Goldwing back in the 80's and would like to do it again. I also bought a side by side and want to go have some fun with that. The current market also swayed me to sell.... It kind of gave me the opportunity to reset.

    Thanx for all the kind words, this is a great community and I'll still be around.......I think :)

    I picked up crewing on a sailboat for Wed night racing. Fun!  No spark plugs either.
