    What is your favorite boat?

    My favorite for my personal use is the SKI 196. I can't put all the models in so if you want to just say 91 excel or whatever in your post, you can do that.

    can i say PARAGON? any closed bow correct craft does it for me. i did see a all black supra one time. very nice.

    my brothers old 18' donzi with the 454 was nice, but i bet a ride in bill burgess's boat would be a thrill when the nitrous kicks in.

          If the Paragon was up there, it'd surely get my vote. That boat is plain EVIL. :twisted:

          tryan, ever see Bill's website of all the boats he's raced? He's got plenty others I wouldn't mind a ride in either.

                      Voted for the SKI 19/6, BUT, it's gotta be old. That squared off stern, those chrome Air Guides sticking out like an after-thought and just that spartan, built for a purpose feel of the boat. Kinda like an old pickup or gun dog. There's something 'just right' about them.

                      Of course this could be some kind of social / psychological problem also. The has not been one minute since October of '66 that I have not owned a least one car between the built between the years of '64 and '75.

                          My fav is my 99' ski nautique with a Fuel injected GT-40, PP 1:123 tranny, 4 blade oj, perfect pass digital pro, 4 vent heater with low rpm fix, red trimmed rub rail, sunbrella bimini, and customized Prestige trailer.

                          The best part its paid for.
                          My next favorite boat is any that I can ski behind during the summer.

                            Spent a bunch of time comparing the 206/216 to my SLXi...neither of them offered enough to get me to change. The SLXi is the best boat for my needs.

                              Growing up in a C.C. family, they were naturally my first choice. But after seeing what M-BU had to offer..for less money..changed my mind. I'm with Edwin. My VLX was and is the best boat for my needs..and my wallet !!
