[QUOTE="Sub_Elect, post: 79876, member: 1014"] I cant tell you how many hours my big engine had on it. But after the first 2 years I found out my HDS7 was on for over 1700 hours.....So, enough to justify any boat I want to buy! [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] To do the math (minus the interest, cuz I don't know what that amount was) I bought my Skeeter for 40,000 ish after graphs and everything. I ran it for 6 full years. I never did look at the time on my depth finder, but if you figure 1500 hours spent fishing every 2 years, times 3. I fished or had the depth finder on for 4500 hours those 6 years. I sold the boat in October for $30,000. So basically it cost me 10k to have that boat, but here is the real math. Take 10,000 divided by 4500, and It cost me $2.22 per hour just in payment, to have my boat. DEAL!!!!!!!!! Not trying to be a jerk, just a different way for me to look at dividing time per cost. I love having a boat and will always have one. [/QUOTE]
