Like others here on Boatered I now have a "fun" boat. It will be used for fishing, water sports, and just having fun. 2006 Angler 22' with a 225hp Evinrude E-Tec.

I have more fun with the skiff than the big boat. Although can't sleep on the skiff, hence the big boat. Good luck with her
 
Congrats, very nice looking boat

Love the tow rig!!!
 
I heard many people saying that they have more fun with a small boat than the big one. They can go anywhere they want and faster and dock in marinas where they could not go with the big monster.
 
Thanks guys. Looking forward to getting it in the water. I have to get the bottom painted and it should be ready. Been buying fishing gear...ouch!

One of my favorite boating quotes taken from a really old Whaler catalog..."fun is not a function of length?.."which I agree with. I have a 34' downeast style jet boat that provides my family the opportunity to spend time away from our 'normal' life and to visit not-so-far away islands (BI 1hr, MV 2.5 hrs), but we also have a13' whaler sitting in the garage that I find myself contemplating fixing up more and more these days...
 
Congratulation - You will have a great time with that boat for sure.

Perhaps consider taking the smaller boat with you on the longer trips - it will add all kinds of options for exploring, skiing, fishing, and transporting between the larger boat and various other spots.

Happy boating
