I feel underpriveledged!!!  I only have one boat.

Its a Dagger Edisto, its a little less than 15' I think.
Perhaps a little small for folks around here, but I was
afraid of putting anything longer on top of my little
Tercel.  I added a deck compass and it came with a nice
rudder.  It has no forward bulkhead, which at first made
me a little nervous, but I've come to really like being
able to get all my fishing equipment with me under the
deck, including my long 2 piece flyrod.  I added a white
all-around light, cutting on the rear hatch cover, and
reinforcing it. It gives me about 4-5 hours of light with
a little ldAcid 12v - 7AmpHr battery.   I've only done
day tripping with it so far, (less than 3 months), but
intend this to be a great substitute for multi-day 
backpacking; which used to require me to take a 14 hr
car ride to get where I wanted to go.
