We sold our 2009 Yamaha!

[farrelltravis]

I haven't posted on this forum in years, but thought I would get on here and report that we have sold "Just Money".

We have been jet boating for over 15 years. We absolutely loved our Yamaha. I have been a member of this forum since its inception. But, our kids are growing up. Wakeboarding, skiing, and tubing wasn't our thing anymore. Anchoring and chilling became our thing. It was a sad day, but we finally sold our Yamaha. After we sold the Yamaha, we ended up buying an express cruiser. We bought a 2000 Sea Ray 310 Sundancer. We named her "Moor Money" in sticking with the money names for our boats.

Yamaha has always held a special place in our heart! We still own a Yamaha Waverunner and a Yamaha grand piano! But, we will always miss our Yamaha boat. And, I will still check in on this forum every now and then.

If you are interested, here is a video about the story of selling our Yamaha and the day our Sea Ray was delivered.

Thank you! It was an exciting day for us to say the least.

You are so right on the memories. We have so many great memories of our Yamaha. But, we are truly excited to make new memories on our Sea Ray. But, Yamaha will always a special place in our heart!

We sold our 07 a few years ago. Boats do come and go, just like members over the years. We are into a Catamaran now. The Searay will be a nice boat for you.

Found this on the catamaran today.
Some of you may know that we bought a 1991 PDQ 36 sailing catamaran, an old cat. Well, she is on the move now. We started yesterday from Shaws Boatyard in Dighton Mass. down the Taunton River to Mount Hope Bay and my old college/university, Roger Williams, past Newport, RI then hard to starboard past Point Judith and eventually to the LI Sound. We got off the mooring a few hours late on Saturday so we spent the night at anchor near the Newport Bridge.


Today we saw mainly water and fog and lobster pot bouys dodging them along the...

It's really what fits your family for the time. I'm already looking down the road at what will be next for us. I love our Yamaha but could see the addition of something faster down the road.

I absolutely agree with you, @anmut ! Boating is a lot of things, but what fits you changes over time.
