dont get a seadoo unless you got the $$$$. they are fun but WOW the price psshh...
since you like fishing pick up a center console, around 17-18 feet is great for small parties, if you want more people you are looking into getting a 22-27 foot to hold from 6 to 8 people safely, our friend has a 27ft that holds up to 14 people (not safely) lol but i dont advise it it was way too crowded.
there are lots of different kinds of boats, alot of the boaters where i work and donnie included like the v-hull, flats are ok, if you are just going inshore, if its offshore i suggest getting a bit bigger of a boat like 22ft or bigger to go offshore, get a very good motor, nothing under 125hp on a 20ft or bigger, and make sure your blige pump can handle the size of your boat, one of our boston whaler wet slip renters didnt have a strong enough blige and his boat almost sank.
you can always buy a boat without motor, but motors are freakin expensive! its like a car engine, its the most expensive part.
when we bought the bassboat, we had a 150hp johnson, lol that thing fucken rocked on plane. lol you can always get a bigger badder engine for a small boat, but you can never get a small engine for a big boat. nah uh, unless you want to call seatow all the time. =] i know seatow guys too pancho...
well, i think, you should visit me and ill take you to my work. lol

ROB???? where does the helicopter land?
My kayak is really a transformer. At the flip of a switch it turns into a Yacht.
One time I hit the switch in the wrong place and this happened. Unfortunately the batteries died at the same time and I couldn't get it to transform back.
This gentleman was nice enough to tow me out.
