Default cruising as work

When I am working for a few months, I then want to go cruising because

it seem like work after awhile?


For most, the definition of 'work' is doing what you'd prefer not to do.
If cruising's maintenance demands are what you'd not prefer doing over
the labor you'd do on land, then quit.

Personally speaking, I'd much rather overhaul a winch (say) than do a
complex financial analysis the latter of which I'll be doing tomorrow.
