I won't give up the Formula on 'pesaukee. It's a great boat on the big lake. I do have a 'toon on 'squam, the perfect craft for the smaller lake! Mooring restrict me to 20', but you can get a great 'toon for that length. Powered with a 115, the kids gets plenty of towing and skiing done! Yes! We waterski!

Problem is the grandkids wants to try surfing and the 'toon, no matter what cannot throw a big wave, but I was able to get the kids surfing behind the Formula if I have a full tank of gas! So no wake boat for me!

Perfect setup! We boat during the weekdays when the big lake is quiet, and 'toon on weekends on the small lake to avoid the horror show. I love it here!
You never want to surf behind an outboard! Very dangerous.
