Default Interesting junk mail

Why not 22 days consecutively? If
someone wanted to day sail then they
would rent a day sailor! It sounds
like a very good deal for the owners.
One lease-share would pay the slip
expenses for the year.

Inexpensive, oversized postcard. "Leaseshare A Magnificent New 2004 Jeanneau
37 Foot Yacht Near Detroit" "Sail the Entire Season for the All-Inclusive
Price of $4,350" On the back, it explains that the "season" consists of "22
day and evening" sails on Lake St. Clair. They must be having some success
in Chicago, they claim to have been in business for 7 years. The website
shows a fleet of older(pre-2004) boats, I wonder if anyone in these parts
will take the bait? I called the 800 #, and as I suspected, the "22 days and
evenings" are just that, you can't have the boat for more than a day at a
time, which probably helps the real owners enormously on insurance costs. It
does sound like something that might appeal to a business owner, you could
possibly write off the cost of the lease as an expense.
