No, just kidding about the new boat. I've actually been thinking I should maybe sell the boat I have because we hardly use it. The lake ain't that big and I get bored driving around in circles around the lake. Maybe get a pontoon instead. They do a spectactular fireworks show here over the water so we'll take the boat out and watch the fireworks from the boat. Other than that I prefer riding the skis.
OK, I have the story to declare me the winner and bring this contest to an end:
I take the boat over and dock at the marina yesterday to buy some oil for the jetskis. I come out of the store and as I'm just about back to my boat, this guy in a rather flambouyantly painted jetski pulls up. As I walk past him, he says "Hey, that's a really nice johnson you have there." Needless to say, this really stunned me for a few seconds and I wasn't quite sure how to respond. Then I happen to notice the nice shiny pontoon that had pulled in beside my boat and I say "Oh thanks, but that's not mine. Mine has the Mercruiser."
