That's because your family probably knows that you


prefer to sail,

wanted a sailboat and that you were actively looking at


cruising

sailboats, even showing Kathie a C&C at one point. Now


you're driving

around in a floating RV and believing, or trying to


believe that it's

what you wanted?
Who else in the sailing group has switched to power


boating,

Doug...besides you?

Not going to discuss Doug's personal situation because


what he does is

his business but do want to address the ttopic in general.

Just what is the matter with doing something your spouse


wants to do or

feels more comfortable doing?



From the pics, and Doug's posts, it doesn't appear that


he's languishing over his decision.

Why is Bob?



Emotional immaturity? Genetic deficiency? Boredom?

All of the above?

Without careful study that question will never be answered.

And probably shouldn't...
