Now...stop the lying and posturing. Let's all be honest. How much do you
REALLY
sail your own boat.

Most years I sail about 2000 miles. However, I suppose that as much as 50%
might be under engine. So I suppose that I REALLY sail about 1000 miles a
year.


1/2 your time motoring. I have a MSV and motor less...

We sail Alien an average of 3 times a week and a bit more
in the last months.

Really? I'm astonished. I doubt that we would get an average of 3
suitable sailing days a week. You must have a good supply of wind in LIS!


Last summer we only managed time for 5 short trips, the
longest being 5 days and the others only weekends.

Pathetic!!

It's not a competition folks. Some of you may be working hard and can't
manage
a lot of free time. I'm just curious after a conversation with a fellow
(he
owns a IP 35) who only sails 3 weeks out of the whole summer. He pays a
lot for
a boat he hardly uses, but it's worth it to him. Even if you own a low
cost
boat, did you ever calculate the cost vs. time actually spent aboard?
