I have a 30’ w/ twins sbc350’s , much more maneuverable than a 25’ w/ a single. Ive got a 149gal fuel tank that i filled up three times from early May to beginning of November , and went all over the on it ,there wasn’t one weekend all summer we didn’t. Sleeps 6 go down on Friday night come home Sunday night… As far as slipping you have to take care of your boat… end of year pressure wash all the algae off , beginning of year new bottom paint(you roll it on) , during the year don’t be a slob cleanup after yourself , it really isn’t that hard to keep a boat clean. We kept our boat at beaver island marina and are moving over to river oaks for 08 but it was only 800 for the year and included electric , city water, security(24hr harbormaster), and the park…lot easier to slip not tow… gl
