So yesterday my Facebook reminded me that "on this day" in 2014 we sold our Shockwave. I posted that I totally regretted that decision....and my wife responded. You can see her response down at the bottom.:eek::cool:

If I had the coin, I'd buy your cruiser to help fund your new build:)

...oh, and I think you have yourself a keeper;)

Her boyfriend must be like shockwaves!..lol


All bullshit aside, that is awesome! She must miss it too. You better rub her feet tonight. All in all my ol lady is kind of the same way. I have found through out the years, if you make them think it's for them, or something you can both enjoy together (this is how I spent endless amounts of $ on toys for the sand and even more on sand drags), you can get away with alot more fun stuff! Congrats man, now you just have to pull the trigger!

Ha! Pretty funny but that's her and in fact she's still talking about it tonight. But she's saying the Formula has to go first. I'll most likely list it on boat trader, Craigslist, etc on Tuesday. If one of you guys are interested I'll cut you a break. My no haggle price is $30K

I'm Kind of bummed you never followed through with the naming. I gave you some really good suggestions and spent hours working on the graffix. LOL

That’s awesome!!

Persistence is key..... after enough whining, bitching and complaining about something they usually cave because they are so sick of hearing about it!! Nice work Grads!

What are you going to name the new boat?

I hope it's "Best Wife Ever". That will definitely send a message...

So I just ran this idea by the wife and her response was and I quote...."We are not getting a boat with outboards, we might as well buy a jet boat if you want that".

So that would be a no.:D
I like her:D

If the outboards are out I’d take a hard look at this

Actually. Yeah! So would I!
@GRADS ? Any intent to run the ocean? Two engines is always better than one out there!!
Dock manners too!!

I think twin small blocks would be the way to go in that boat too. It’s a BIG 29, twins will plane faster, cruise faster. Maintenance isn’t too bad, there’s usually a decent amount of room between the motors.
