Boats with a Cabin?
All
I am moving soon, and hope to buy a boat with a small cabin inside - but I also want a JKU. So my question for you all is: does anyone have both and can they post a picture? I know JKUs can't tow alot, but I wondered if there are any boats light enough that still manage to have a cabin too.
Thanks!

My x-star (pictured above) weighs in at 5100 dry. After putting 35gallons of gas (about 220lbs) plus another 100 in gear, plus let's say 200 for trailer. Roughly 5620total.
I tow it twice a year. Once to dock it and once to bring it home. Only use the jk if I can't find a truck to use. It struggles so much even for my 20mile trip. Not to bad flat. But the lake I go to is in the mountains.
What I'm trying to say is good luck. Buy a jku with a hemi.

They are great trailers thats for sure. The Evolution designers had to have been thinking about jeeps when they were designing them. I don't know if I could tow an E3 over the mountains out here.
