We've been into boating and water sports since 1976. Watched our kids, grand kids and now a great granddaughter grow up around boats. Mostly at Lake Powell and our mountain lakes here in Colorado. I purchased a new 195 SR Searay in Oct of 1976 and it served us well. We sold it in 2012 for close...

We lost our only airport in the county in 1980, ten minute drive. Been in a metal hanger since 1983 in 20V along with my sons in another hanger. We built a hanger there in 2003. It's 45 miles and around 35-40 minutes on mountain roads and good weather. You will spend a half day flying for an...

Guy's, don't ask what it cost to build George M light weight 185. Beegles will build you a better than new 185 out of yours, again costly, but much cheaper than buying a new one if Cessna still made them. I've been lucky enough to have been the custodian of my 1971 185 for 40 years this...

Just break out the 30 year old road atlas and go IFR!

Another great C/W star gone. He had a number of great songs, saw him live a few times. RIP

Along with the planes James331 posted, add 120/140/170 Cessna and a few others. I priced a new 1976 180 with no radios but all the other options I wanted, it was $25.500, price the same plane today. I purchased my 1971 A185E in 1976 for $25,000. I insure it at $145,000 today. Of course I've done...
