Newbie & jet boater wannabe

[BigAbe75]

Hey folks,

Over the last couple months I've been feeling the need to upgrade our boat. Currently, I'm running a '92 Celebrity 190 I/O. She still runs great, and is in unbelievable shape for her age, but we've essentially out grown it and need a few more feet and a more roomy floor plan. After more than a few google searches on current boats, I keep coming back to the Yamaha styling. And after a bunch more searches for additional info, I invariably find myself here on jetboaters.net.

So... I thought I ought to finally join and introduce myself.

From what I've seen so far from the group, after lurking on the forums a bit... I don't think I'll get run off for having a prop.

I've got several questions, getting started, but I'll move those to the appropriate forums.

Thanks,
Abe

I can relate. In May I went from a 1987 21 foot Four Winns I/O that I owned for 18 years to a 2016 Yamaha 242 Limited SE. Not one regret. But I think I went thru the same thought process as you are going thru now. Lots of help, experience, advice, and opinions on here and willing members to help you out!
