Do you OWN or Do you Actually Wakeboard

Me and my wife both wakeboard and surf, we obviously bought our boat to suit both those needs. But every time we go out we wear ourselves out and go find a place in a cove and drop anchor or drift depending on how many people are out and hop in the water with the radio on and hang out. To us that is what its all about enjoying the water and having a few cold ones, both of our dogs (GSP's) are naturally attracted to the water so they get in and chase the ball all day long (sometimes they don't even wait for the boat to stop, they seem to have a better instinct for a good place to stop).

Both my parents grew up on boats. My grandparents still have their old boat. It hasn't been used in at least five years though. A few years back my grandma skied on her 75th bday. We grew up with jet boats going to the Colorado River and Kings River. Most weekends we would go to the Colorado River and then at least once a summer we would take a week vacation to the Kingds River. Those were amazing vacations and I wouldn't have changed it for a trip to Hawaii or Europe or anywhere.

I got away from boating for a little bit in college because I was playing baseball. After school I partnered up with someone and purchased a '98 Malibu Sportster that we picked up cheap from a repo company. Soo many great times on that boat. Got married and sold the Malibu and bought the Supra. Hopefully we will have kids one day and they can experience and enjoy the same fun times I had growing up.

We usually ride once in the mornings and maybe once in the afternoon. I love wakeboarding, but just being on the water is so calming and enjoyable to me.

every day at 5:40 PM I see someone riding behind Trevor Hansen's Supra on Lake Minehaha. Does that count?

'This is a great thread' he said while wiping a tear from his eye, remembering a warm spring day sitting in the Supra in a quiet cove somewhere on the Chesapeke bay. Acold one in his hand, talking to his dad about boats and boating while the sun glitters off the wind tickled water. Man... thanks dad, for getting me into boats, letting me do everything by myself while you just sat there and said nothing. Until the boat was tied to the dock, and then a sincere 'nice job'. That meant the world to me. It still does.
