Introduction

Hello,

My wife and I bought a boat last year in October (2005). It is a 24' fiberglass boat with a diesel engine. We both love the boat! Everyone told us that it would be a lot of work to own a boat and they were right. Everyone also called it a "hole in the water" which means that there is always something to buy for the boat and the money can disappear quickly.

I am going to write about our boat and share information about our hard work with other people who may be going through the same thing. It's amazing how much information can be pieced together from so many different sources. There is no one single book or internet site that can answer all questions and finding out how to do something is part of the fun of owning a boat.

Also, we get to do some Alaskan Fishing!
