keep an I/O boat out on a mooring or in a wet dock, but that isn't what
you are going to do.

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.


25 hours a year? RENT a boat or join a club. Buying a boat for 25
hours a year is insane. I use mine 25 hours in a holiday weekend.
