“Boats are a great investment for a family because it’s a way to
socialize and spend time together,” says Ellen Hopkins, a spokes*woman
for Discover Boating. “A lot of my friends who grew up boating said
that one of their best memories was going out with their dads on
Sundays and fishing — it’s a unique way to bond. It’s like a
minivacation, even just being on a kayak on the water.”
Yeah, beats driving 120 miles to 6 flags and paying $50 bucks each to
get in then end up standing on hot asphalt waiting an hr to ride some
whirlie-gig and eat $5.00 hotdogs....

Having lived on my boat for the last 40 years has enabled me to semi retire in my mid 20's and work only a month or less a year since then, the rest of my time being play time. I have owned my own home , debt free since my early 20s, something that would have been impossible on land.
No regrets , if I had it to so again, I would do the same.
