Default The Well Carpeted boat

Even if your floating bordello did make it out of the harbor here, it'd
never get back in until the next tide cycle. All fancied up and
nowhere to go. Fast enough to go round in circles but cant really go
anywhere.
I have given serious consideration to buying a bigger boat but since my
ego isnt tied to the size of my boat I decided against it. A bigger
boat will not go where I want to go. Even a 3' 10" draft is a serious
limitation for me.
In fact, I will probably NEVER buy another boat but will probably build
one. For some reason I have gotten into boat building and cant stop.
Currently, I am building a power boat, a Tolman Skiff (20' Standard,
you can google on Tolman Skiff) because I want a way to quickly get to
and from the local islands. My next boat MAY be something like the
Cormorant, a water ballast trailerable home built sailboat.
I am probably older than you and certainly better educated.
