You got that right.
Back when we were kids. It would cost less than $15 ,000.00 for those 3.. Depending on where you lived, maybe closer to $10,000.00.

Saw some guys have more in electronics than I have in 3 boats n my bike n all my fishing gear 👍🤣.
I'm not spending money on electronics.
Then I'd need to go to school to learn how to use it 🤪.

After my Dad died in '64, I think my Mom's house, ours, was built by a family friend and I think it only cost $7.500.00
It was in Idalou, Texas and was 3br, 2 ba 2 car garage. In town and had a 6 foot cedar fence around the back yard.
If you had that house here in Windsor Ca. it would be worth in the 900 thousand range.
Back there it's worth MAYBE 200 K, if that.

Do they have a gas motor or is it a ROW BOAT? $100,000.00 WOW, wish we could afford a boat like that. 
They are motor boats 250 hp + deep V trackers. Made for chasing walleye. The guy that drives them everywhere (non Amish) has the boat registered and titled in his name even though it belongs to the Amish fellow. So the Amish guy isn’t technically breaking there rules. A lot of the Amish around here are only allowed to own a 16ft or smaller boat with a 10 hp or less. I know all this from talking with the drivers.

You can laugh at that Amish one, but we see that kind of thing around here all the time

Some of my Amish contacts in Indiana would take care of me. Instead, I bought a piece of crap bout and didn't even break even on it. Story of my life. Never breaking even.

They use all sorts of machines for work. I know an Amish Roofing crew that uses robots!! They get away with the boats on a technicality that it’s registered to someone non Amish. I’ll get you guys pictures this spring. It blows my mind how I’m in downtown Cleveland and 50%+ of the boats are all Amish.

Told you I should have come to Cleveland for my boat. We have a custom furniture store here in Knoxville. Everything made by Amish. It's expensive but probably the best I've ever seen. Quality and beauty.
