Get used to it Tom, that's just the beginning.

That's why there is no such thing as a free boat. They all cost about
the same to work on, might as well get a good one.

The most reasonable prices are further south in my experience, no
bargains in New England. The marinas there are going out of business
left and right as the land becomes too valuable, and the ones
remaining can charge almost as much as they want.
