At first I thought this	newsgroup was only for sail boats, but then
I saw the article(s) about water skiing	(which I don't think you can
do behind a sailboat ;-> ).

I am about to purchase my first	power boat and I am at a loss as to
what kind to get.  It will be for water	skiing,	fishing	and just crusing.
Any recomendations on the following questions would be greatly appreciated.

    -How big?

    -What type hull (tri-hull, deep vee, etc.)?

    -Inboard or	Outboard (and what size) engine?

    -What drive	(Jet, In and Out, V)?

    -Brands (Does it matter)?

You can	mail responses (or just	experiences) directly to me.  If there
is suffience interest I	will summarize for the net.

		-Thanks-    -Pete-
