    I just got a BOAT!
    A 1993 21' Striper.
    Were gonna put it in a slip in May. I love it it has a cuddy cabin, too.

    Good for you zDawg32;) Just one word of advice...stay away from the Indian Navy!!! They had a tendency to sink things, though rightfully so!! Not that you're a pirate, or anything, but just to be on the safe side!!!

    Charlie's Angels? I like that! :)

    Nice boat. Are you near water so it can be used regularly?

    Charlie's Angels is the name it came with. Since we have many little ones in the house, it is going to be called the S.S. Cheapskate [link].
    We do not live on water, but we are 25 minutes from Wantaugh Park, where we are in the lottery for a slip. If not, we will just tow it.

    That's very nice, should be a lot of good times for the family.

    Is there a parade of lights at Christmas time? In California close to Christmas all the boats in the harbors deck out in lights and Christmas deco, music.
    Usually cold but fun.

    No, there is no parade. NY is usually 12-20 degrese on christmas. Thats not gonna happen!

    I wanted to take a panoramic picture of the side(the first pic) but it kept saying "Stripper" instead of "Striper" :-D It was very funny, and thats my wallpaper now.:):cool

    zDawg32,

    Neato! You know what they say about boats (actually yachts)? They're a hole in the water into which to shovel your money...
