New Rinker Owner

canaan · August 2017

Just wanted to introduce myself. New owner of a 2006 Rinker 342 FV. Love the boat and been reading the Forum for a couple of weeks and wanted to post a pic of the new (used) boat. Just moved up from a 2013 Chaparral 244 Sunesta. Love having 2 screws and able to sleep on it. Glad to be part of the forum - some great information sharing and posts. *The boat is from Holland, I am actually in St. Joseph, MI.

Welcome. In the time I’ve been here since getting my Rinker I’ve learnt a lot and hopefully shared something of value also.

Great boat! I had one for ten years and loved it. All the comforts of home, and it will cruise 30 mph at 1.2 mpg. Plus, you've found the best source of experts to answer any questions you might have. Welcome!

Welcome and beautiful boat! Whole new experience spending the night on your boat. Best way to see the sunset and no worries about docking afterwards. Plus the water always seems to get the calmest just when it's time to head back to the marina. Welcome again!
