I wanted to introduce myself. I am a former trailer sailor wanting to get a trailerable powerboat. Something around 21 foot and easy to trailer with my 2020 RAM 1500. My wife and I are currently building our retirement home (hope to retire next year) near Rehoboth Bay, in southern Delaware.

I was considering either a 21’ Chaparral SSI (outboard) or a 21’ RobaIo dual console. I thought jet boats were a crazy alternative o_O, until I started to learn more about them! A lot of what I have l learned has been by reading the threads on this forum. :bookworm: Now,I think I want a Yamaha 210 FSH Sport instead!

As I can’t boat this Summer, I’m thinking about getting a boat for next Summer. When our house is done, I can keep the boat in our driveway or in our oversized garage (for the Winter). Of course, this has been a crazy year+ for boats, so I’m hoping the boat market settles down next year.

Welcome to the forum. The 210 FSH is a fantastic boat. I really wanted to buy that, but the Admiral and the Kids wanted the AR210. So that is what we went with and couldn't be more pleased overall with this Yamaha boat and it jet engines.
