[QUOTE="CedarRiverScooter, post: 474052, member: 15465"] I would get 16 ft, console steering, seats for everyone, maybe 35-50 hp. Tall sides will be a benefit when the big boats go by. The kids will want to ride on a tube as soon as they see one. You can get the bimini aftermarket, figure $400 for that. There are swing away tongues to help garage it but that would be on a high end boat. Anyway to get it in on a diagonal? The main point is not to underbuy as you could be trading up when the bug bites deep. [/QUOTE]
