A privilege to drive your car? You sir, are a socialist and part of
the
downfall of this country.

I have some socialist leanings ( I believe in social security, and
that
everyone should be able to afford health care). But the folks
causing
the downfall of this great country are the fascists in this
administration who have and are continually tramping on the
constitution.

Everyone has the opportunity to purchase health care just as they have
the
opportunity to purchase food, shelter and clothing.

If you feel so strongly about this issue then why don't you set up a
foundation to pay for the health care or health care insurance costs
of
those that don't have the money for health care or health care
insurance.
Or better yet, why don't you spend your own money to pay for some one
else's health care insurance. Be the example!

Everyone also has the opportunity to purchase an 80 foot yacht.

Tell me what the least expensive family health insurance plan costs in
Rochester NY. At least take a guess.

And everyone has the opportunity to take their political tripe to
a.politics.

So, what do you think of my new boat selection?

Yeah, really? No one even commented. I thought I would hold off, but
geeze. Anyway, I like the lines of the hull on many of their smaller
boats like the 14 and 17's. My only comment is how big it is and how
difficult it might be to single launch and such, Do you boat in open
or protected water, if protected, I might even go a couple feet
smaller. If open water, get a good skid protector on the keel, and
some good bumpers.

Good point. That in-between size can be awkward.
If a person always has at least one able crew along...no problem. If not,
I'd be tempted to either go a bit bigger and keep the boat at a
mooring/slip, or go smaller to something easily handled by one person. As
you say, a lot depends on where you boat and the conditions you're brave or
foolish enough to venture out in.


Good points. Having had the experience with the 21'er is what prompted me
to go for a boat that is much easier to trailer and launch/retrieve. Most
of the time, if fishing or playing, I'd have fishing buddies or the wife
along. My wife is great at helping with launching and retrieval. She's had
lot's of practice!
