Why the constant pre-occupation with "trolls?" Makes no sense at all. What
difference does it make if a "troll" starts an on-topic discussion versus
a
non troll? Is it not the discussion that one should be concerned with

than who started it? Some people around here should grow up and realize
that the universe doesn't revolve around them alone.


If you enjoy playing in the world of make believe, and there is a fair
amount of evidence that you do, then go for it.


You act like THIS is reality? Get a grip, dude!

My wife and I spent 3 months in a backpacking tent when we were
married and still spend at least a month each year sleeping in a tent
so when we spend time on the 28' boat, it is luxury by comparison.
Try it, that 28' boat will not cost you and arm and leg and will allow
you to figure out if you like it. Will probably need to replace the
standing rigging on most older boats and the 28' wont break you
toooooooo much. You can also find reasonable used sails for her.
Throw away the old alcohol stove and get one of the Magma gas grills
so you can cook off the stern. Throw away the old marine head and
replace it with a good porta potti and then your life becomes much
simpler.
I dunno where the poster lives but such a boat could cruise all over
any of our coasts and to the Bahamas or the Caribbean or Mexico, etc.
Do it, do it, do it (if she's in good shape).
