Default Show your boats(past and present)

I love these show your boats threads. We've had boats running, stern shots, boats at the docks, etc. Now, I'd like to see what boats you've had before, and what boats you have now. List your first boats first, and let's see what you've moved into now. I thought it would be interesting to see if people stayed with a manufactuer, moved up in size with each boat, stayed WA or CC or fliped back and forth, etc. These are my only two boats.

First one is a 91 Stratos 2250 wa with a johnson 200 that was originally my dad's, but over the years I sorta became the only user of the boat. This boat has a special place in my heart because we had her out many a time fishing offshore and she only left me out there one time.

The second boat is a 2006 Mckee Craft 24 TE with twin 175 zukes. I've only used this boat one time so far, but wow. The boat will handle far more than I can.
