Malibu Response LX Ski boat for the mountains and 23' Novurania dive boat for diving(and whale watching last week, got to jump in the water with some humpbacks off the coast in Monterey...one of the greatest experiences I have ever had). Ex-stunt skier, amature/pro slalom skier. For fun I barefoot and this year I am FINALLY going to make the leap to wakeboarding. Keep my ski boat at lakefront vaca home in the sierra foothills. BTW...allot of cool backroads around there. Maybe I could arrange for a S2k weekend outing up there. It sleeps about 20.

Hmmm...now if I can just convince the wife...

My father maintains my 36 foot Pacific cruiser. Well actually it's his but I keep telling him it's got my name on it

Great boat if you want to spend a few days away from it all.

Bloody things amazing. It even has a desalinator to make fresh water on the go.

I spent three days on it over New Years with my GF and two dogs.

My boat is the only thing I like to drive better than the S2K. I have a 24' offshore runabout in the mold of the classic Cigarette boats only scaled down. 502 cubic inch V8 generates 415 HP at the prop which translates to about 80 MPH. Trust me if you have never experienced it, 80 on the water is FAST. This is GPS verified speed not speedo indicated which is notoriously optimistic. Most of our boating is on Lake George in NY. 32 miles long and surrounded by mountains this is one of the cleanest and most beautiful bodies of water in this part of the world. As a bonus, the area around the lake offers many fine driving roads through the Adirondacks. THe only problem I have now is the S2K won't tow the boat so my summer weekends become an either/or decision.

My poor Donzi was laying at the bottom of the slip when I went to go for a cruise a few years back I never replaced it and blew the insurance money on things I can't even remember. But one day I will get another one. Probably after I get a cottage.
