What is your avg monthly maintenance cost? (5-10yrs old)

[hokiesax]

I've had my 1999 SAN for 18 months now and my average maintenance cost is easily over $200 per month and this doesn't even include "small" things like oil/transmission fluid changes, etc. I've had to do a few things that were a long time coming for this boat that the previous owner hadn't done, such as manifolds/risers, replacing all hoses, etc. Anyways, I went with an "older" boat because I thought it would be cheaper (even with maintenance), but maybe it would be cheaper over all to go with a newer boat with less maintenance.

What is everyone's average monthly maintenance costs? I'll make separate posts for different age boats.

WOW!! I have 04 216 TE. I follow the maint schedule and after my first trip to the dealership for service, I've been doing all my regular maint myself....which isnt that much.
