It depends on several factors, how do you fish, where do you fish, do you use a kicker moter when trolling and the list could go on. My insurance agent showed me some stats from Wash. that said the average number of hrs. a boat is used per year was around 130. I've had my boat since July of 03 and I have about 825 hrs. That averages out to 137 hrs per year for me, pretty close to what the insurance agent told me.
