[QUOTE="earico, post: 14057094, member: 114682"] DO YOUR HOMEWORK. Maintenance is key. Then have fun. My boat is by far the best purchase I have ever made. The best family fun we have ever had. If you like to do your own maintenance then the Mercruisers are a little easier to service and cheaper for parts than the Volvos. Both drive systems are good and reliable though. Little things will go wrong and it's the nature of a boat. Like screws backing out over time and etc. Just have to do a full once over every year and take care or the little things. Mine is a 2005 225 Four Winns Sundowner. 22.5' or 24' including platform. Bought it 1 year old but never used or propped. It was a boat show queen. Saved a ton that way but also knew it hadn't been mistreated. If you buy used just be sure to check it over thoroughly or have someone do that for you. I see you are in Austin. We will be back in SA this summer and back on Canyon Lake. Might see you out there :beer: [ATTACH=full]563143[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]563144[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]563145[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
