I was serious but not trying to be grumpy. Ski-it-again does a great job for those marketing lake homes. Our site would be sheer luck—not worth the effort of dropping one bomb hoping to hit the target.

Yeah folks you gotta wake up and smell the taxes. Illinois is #1 for property taxes as a percentage of assessed value. We pay around 3-3.5%.
Many states are less than 1%. Think about that when you switch from earning a living to spending your life savings in retirement and you’ll see why 40k leave Illinois every year. Hard to beat what states like Florida, Tennessee, and even Texas offer us boating enthusiasts on a budget.

Peter, you could make an even shorter move (Indiana) and upgrade that MC 197TT to a CC 200 OB relatively soon with the tax savings (and get more house).
BTW...... I am pretty sure the "grumpy old men" on this site won't tell Lynn (CC GS20 owner) that your Avatar is not your current boat.

I’ll take high taxes over these f#*king retirees moving to Florida and ruining my home state.

Yes the dark side. It’s a fact I owned another brand before the Nautique. Indiana is closer and we have been looking for lake homes. Wide open to suggestions there too! Not too many deals right now but we are looking at all sorts of options. We want a north home close to our Illinois friends and a tax haven southern home for better weather for a majority of the time.

We’re coming and bringing all of our expectations with us. I’m afraid for Florida long term.

Oh, you mean the covered boat slips

A boat house has walls and doors besides the roof.

You real estate people are experts at embellishment!




This is a “Boathouse”. Built ON the lake, on Pylons. First floor is all patio, storage, game room and boats. Then the house is on top. The tri toon is parked on a composite deck hydraulically lowered into the water, open the garage, and drive the boat off the deck. No cradle used. My ski partner is a high end builder and he built, I wired it. Wish I had better pictures.
