It's a losing proposition and I find that $24,000, half of what the
average American earns in a year, outrageous.


Perhaps, but my expenses on the GB are even higher. I think it's
safe
to say that the average American does not own a boat worth well
into 6
figures. In our case we view it as a second home.



It's good we're having this discussion - just adds more fuel to my
fire about cruising. :)




For around $150,000, you can buy a nice, modern, small house on
acreage in Costa Rica, farm coffee (or lease the land out), and be
within spitting distance of fabulous fishing, and without spending a
fortune on a boat. I have a retired friend down there who did that
three years ago.


More proof the lobster boat was a wild fantasy.

Dan ... you must be the newsgroup w*ore. Now you're infatuated with
Harry.
Can't you focus your attentions on one man at a time? Shame on you!


What purpose do you serve here, Don? Humping others like a little, sad,
dog is pathetic.
