I wouldn't take any advice on boats that Herring offers as valuable."


Yup...drysail is the term we use.
Out of the almost 8000 hours in a year, my boat might average 25 in the
water. (if we really like this new boat, that might be a bit higher) In
four years the Legend didn't spend one night in the water.


With only 25 hours of use, I would look at renting a nice boat when I
wanted on the water.

We did that last year. Rented a boat on four of our trips for the day. Cost a total of about $1500,
usually split 4-6 ways. Much, much cheaper than buying, and still got about 25 hours use out of
them. But, if I lived on a lake or bay, I'd get another. Probably a Key West. Fell in 'like' with
that boat.
