First boat!

The suggestions about Ethanol were really helpful! Our local Murphy's Gas sells 90 octane E-0 gas. Thanks!

Don't buy into the best day is when you buy and sell it. Everyday I take out my boat I love it even more.

I wouldn't think that to be true of a boat that fits in a garage.

Now, the 40' wood motor yacht my BIL bought to live on...what a leaky maintenance nightmare!

This is along the lines of what I was thinking.
The OP's boat should be a minimal expense and a lot of fun, not like the 30-40 ft. sailboat I've always wanted...

Hope he's good at swimming in the middle of the night. Sooner or later that leaking wooden boat is going to end up on the bottom along with all of his stuff!
