Greetings Everybody!
First time Sea Ray owner here! (Technically first time boat owner with the exception of numerous jetski's). We're from Tomball, TX just NW of Houston. My wife and I have been contemplating purchasing a boat for the last 2 years. About a 2 months ago we found the one that we felt suited us the best, a very gently used 2004 Sea Ray Sundeck 220. It was a one owner boat in nearly mint condition with only 94 hours. The previous owner stored it indoors year round and just took meticulous care of it. We felt truly blessed to have found such a beautiful boat. I should note that while this is our first time to own a boat I spent many years operating boats on Lake Conroe and Lake Somerville that were owned by friends and family.
At the present time we're primarily just using the boat on Lake Conroe but we have summer trips planned to Lake LBJ, Inks Lake and Lake Somerville. Our main reason for purchasing the boat was to spend time together as a family with our 10 yr old daughter and 4 yr old son. They love spending time on the water and here in Texas when the summer hits there's no place better to be.
So that's basically our story in a nutshell. I'm sure I will need some helpful advice and opinions from you fine folks a time or two as I'm planning a few upgrades on the boat such as a set of Lenco trim tabs and a second battery. Looking forward to talking with everyone. If there's anyone else here that boats on Conroe maybe we could meet up sometime as we're out there nearly every weekend. We launch from April Sound.
Thanks Ya'll
