it is all relative, buying a bass boat like that is similar to many on here at Bass Pro making impulse buy on a new gun or high end rod. it is fun to splurge now and then within your limits.

Would have been an interesting conversatin with the salesmen.
So what kind of fishing do you do?
I don't fish, but would like to get into bass fishing with my son. This boat looks interesting, what are those pole things in the back for? Looks like it has 2 TV's on it, that is good. Do I have a choice between Dish and Direct TV?
Just kidding on this, but I bet the salesman had a party that night. I am sure your friend did a bit more than just walk into the boat show and walk out with a 60K Ranger. Hopefully he has an idea what he is getting himself into.

I did basically the same thing 8 years ago. Decided 1 day to take up bass fishing, went to a dealer walked in and told salesman I wanted to buy bass boat. I told salesman I had never been is bass boat, he thought I was kidding him. Bought a Triton that day with the understanding the salesman would show me how to load and unload boat and how to drive it.
Best toy I have ever bought toatlly hooked on bass fishing. Since the triton have upgraded size wise to skeeter 250 then ranger 522 and now on my second ranger 522.

 like the man says...if you're swimming in the ocean and get bitten by a shark, its not a shark attack. You're in THEIR neighborhood. If you're at home in your shower, turn around and a shark is in there with you...THAT'S a shark attack

To all that know me, it is very hard to pull a practical joke on me. I am not gullable, and I always check things out before running with a story. That being said:::
It looks like the ultimate prank has been played on me. There was no purchase and there will be no pictures in a couple of weeks. My old friend has pulled one over on me. Just found out a little while ago.
Sorry for dragging everyone in on my embarassment. Just wanted to make things right on here.
So I guess we can go back to fishing no?
