How old were you when you got your first boat?
Discussion
What did you get?
Was it a long term plan, or did you buy your first on a whim? What got you into the hobby?
I've always had the seed planted in my mind, and I'll probably get something that can fit on a trailer before too many years pass. I just wondered what makes all you boaty PH'ers tick
I'm 25 now. It looks like you can get something that looks great for about the £10-15k mark. How much for one that could reliably get you to the South of France and back? Nothing mega, just capable of crossing the channel and hugging the coast for a few days.
Oh, and feel free to post some boat porn too

I may as well start...
So most boaty PH'ers are windbags eh? What about the speedboat/yacht fraternity? Any aboard HMS Piston?
I'm thinking that getting a cool boat won't be too much effort. If I budgeted say, £20k to buy a boat, then bear in mind that they do chew through the old jungle juice... Would I have to worry about much more than that?
I take it that short sea hops aren't that bad these days what with GPS and what-not. What sort of size boat do you need to do it in any sort of comfort? Fast is good. As is flash
Any suggestions?
