Maybe I am thinking too small, but If I could only have one boat and it was on lake Travis, I would probably get a new Formula 400ss with twin 525's.

However, if I truely had "unlimited money", I would own more than one boat. In addition to the Formula 400ss, I would want a Poker Run boat. A new 39-foot Cigarette TopGun with 700 NXTs would be fine with me.

For cruising the Caribbean, I would want a Lagoon 440 sailing catamaran!

Some of the dream boats mentioned in this thread are very nice. I guess I just think a little smaller.

was on one at the toronto boat show, it was not very luxurious. a new interior with some cushy seating, a couple claymates and you would be MONEY!

Clay, just order the 40SS with 1075's and you can poker run with it.

[Bobcat]

the great pumpkin of course !

[glassdave]

MTI cat lite or a 50 Nor-Tec with big diesels . . . . oh hell i could get both for under a mil and an F650 to drag 'em around with

Ha Ha! Not a chance. I will only do a Poker Run in a Cigarette!

[stormrider]

44mag, powered by whatever it takes to top out at 95, cruise at 75. - for the family
And a 28 pantera TS w/ 3man race rigged and staggered Raylar 550sbcs.-for me.

Oh yea, and take the balance to pay off some of my debt.

Of coarse....

[Scarab KV]

Ummm...an Ultra lite canoe with fiberglass paddles, a 4 man Sun Seeker peddle/paddle boat so I can take friends along and an Alumicraft 15' row boat with Merc 10 hp for a back up for those extended cruises. OK, how am I doing for a grand total so far. Is there enough left for beer?

[TCEd]

55 foot Nordhavn and go on a serious cruise.

Id buy Bullish (which is David Woods 108' Broward) and tow a little toy behind her for some fun. Cant beat a Margarita machine on board on a hot summer afternoon !!

[baddogz28]

Poker runner: OL 51' GTX w/ custom retractable targa top, 2x1550's/6's
Day cruiser: '41 Pantera, 2x1075's/6's
Boat to entertain b.itches: 80 Nor-tech

Those are my picks for today. Tomorrow, I'd probably say something different.

[Knot 4 Me]

39 TG w/staggered Ilmor 650's/Indy drives. Simple, old school paint like the one 39 that is/was for sale where the graphics carried into the bilge.

[DKwestern]

i/o V = 46 Outerlimits 1200/#6 =130 mph
i/o cat = 388/40 Skater 1200/Arneson = 160+ mph
outboard V = 33 Powerplay Trip 300XS =90+ mph
outboard cat = 32 Doug Wright twin 300XS = 110+ mph
Bonus - Spectre 24scs 250XS 70 mph

[Seafordguy]

Realistically speaking - I'm easy - give me a nice 50 Nortech with reliable power so I spend time boating-not building, a separate master, the little outside drink mixing table on the port side, and an 4x4 F-650 to pull it with........
