[QUOTE="Darkside, post: 225732, member: 6899"] Scott, For several years we ran a 28' Rampage with 2 175hp Mercs as a solid fishing vessel for the NJ Shore. There were 3 of us to manage the costs and the boat was owned meaning no bank lean. We kept track of the fees one year. $3200 Slip fee for 6 months (included the dry dock fees in and out + electric and water with a bathroom key) $5400 Fuel Cost @ $3.80 - $4.20 on the water Marina costs $ 350 2 Stroke Oil Cost $ 200 Boat Cleaning Supplies $ 700 Misc Maintenance $ 550 Sea Tow and Basic Boat Insurance --------- $10,400/3 = ~$3,500 or $290 each a month throughout the year. That takes a lot of fluke, sea trout and stripers. After including terminal tackle and bait to the boat costs... I think it ended up something like $20 a lb for fish we caught LOL 5 years ago we sold the boat. Which by the way, was the least expensive part of the whole process. We would burn 40-50 gallons a day at a run rate of about 10 gallons per engine per hour. It had a 150 gallon capacity. [/QUOTE]
