If you want to park your boat in someone elses backyard or community
then you have an obligation to also be a good neighbor. That means
keeping your boat in respectable condition and observing a few other
social niceties. If you can do that on the cheap, great, but most
people can't. Being a good person is all well and good but not
totally relevant to whether or not you can keep your boat up, and be
regarded as an asset to the community rather than a liability.
