We look for new to low hours boats.

Not from Maine, NH born and bread. Even a Wildcat (beat a few Blackbears on the gridiron). I wish I had a Classic Glastron Molinari 2+2 painted red white and blue, but not at the moment.

Crownlines, any model in-particular?

...wrong Kurt..lol..

...I really like the Crownline 270..nice. check em out..couple used at Channel Marine...my Molinari was a "Baja" boat...the Glastron was a nice, but different animal...and larger too...

Take a serious look at the Crownline 270br. It's our 5th boat and our favorite.

Go Little Green!!!!!!!!

C'mon, Kurt. They taught you better than that at McKelvie and West!

Kurt. I got a 2007 Sea Ray 240 Sundeck over the winter.....by far the best boat I have ever had. I bought it at Irwin Marine in Laconia. I did alot of research and found that the Sea Ray lineup dominates lake winni, and the Sundeck series is by far the most popular boat on the lake. I have only put on 12 hours so far this year, but my sundeck is the best handling, best riding, highest quality boat I have ever owned.....now I know why they are the most popular boat on lake winni!!!! I say Sea Ray sundeck!!!!!!

Are they really? Seems like there's tons more Cobalts. That said, Cobalts have kind of a unique look and maybe I just recognize them more.

In my opinion the Crownline 270 BR is by far the most popular boat model on the lake.

He's local to me?I bet I was bred in those schools long before he was.

I also went to McKelvie and West. I believe my 8TH class was the first one to graduate from McKelvie.

SR sundecks are by far the most popular boat on the lake.....have you ever been to Mountain View Yacht Club....valet program prob has at least 30 of them.....but good luck finding a used one.....they are impossible to find. When I bought mine used at Irwin Marine, they said they sell 40 sundecks a year easily.

Have owned a 240SD and a 30 Sunadancer:

and people are right. It all depends on the usage and porpose of the renter.
As I currently own a 2006 260BR from Formula ( great seating) I can honestly say I have had fewer issues with this boat than my 240 SD. The boat is great and well powered and heavy enough for anything the lake has to offer.
Look for a model with the extended swim platform it gives so much more usable space for relaxing.

With lots of used invetory I am sure you can find a deal out there.

Good luck

Thanks for all the suggestions, we are still looking around for the 5th boat, but in the meantime. We have decided to replace our fishing boat for a 240 Berkshire Pontoon boat. The Fishing boat, was not getting any utilization, so it had to go, and our members have been extremely pleased with the 220 Berkshire, so the 240 was an easy choice.
Thanks
Kurt

Kurt, as a charter ABCNH member, I humbly submit a request for another bow rider. Also like the deck boat suggestion! Good call on the fishing boat.

We got you covered for the start of this season, we added a brand new 210 SLX with a wakeboard arch. It is an incredible boat, you may have seen it at a boat show, or in the SeaRay brochures.

We also added the ability to make reservations from your smart phone!
