I'd keep the boat I have, buy a new main, a boom tent, a water maker, a
solar panel abd use the extra 240K for the adventure of it all....

That's not the game, Katy. Your Elite's a fine little boat, but hardly ideal
for liveaboard and long range cruising. Spend some of the 250K. What would you
get? Imagine you DON'T have a boat.

There's an idea. I would get some of those high tec sails.


Why would you get a water maker? Is Lake Michigan polluted? Wouldn't a
water filter do?

Baltic 35, Express 35, S2 10.3 or a Swan 36. I'd use the change to have fun
with.
OR A BETTER IDEA
I'd buy a OD35, Mumm 30 or an SR33 and a trailer and use the change to fund my
travels around the country to race.
But I'm sure the Boobster is looking for serious recomendations since he
knows nothing about boats.

And, spend the rest of the money on beer and women!

Here's a guy who admits he pays for hookers. We knew it all along however.

Show me a man who gets sex from a woman and
doesn't spend money doing it and I will show you
a prison guard in a woman's prison. All other men
pay and pay royally. Those men who engage the
services of a prostitute pay far, far less than
married men who must buy their women cars
houses, boats etc. just so they can get a little,
tired and boring same old, same old.

The new trend is amateur, teenage hookers
who live in good homes and good families but
who just like to earn more money so they can
have more freedom than paltry allowances provide.
