Not sure about that Jon. - What boat do you have? Mine is in good,
almost new condition. - When's the last time you had yours surveyed?

I think I'm going to let someone else answer these questions. :-)

Here's a good, true story. I was sailing out of South Beach Harbor (SF
city front) a few years ago. As we were cruising past the boats, we
came to Larry Elison's Sayonara (http://tinyurl.com/rcqvx) on a
side-tie. Low and behold, he and some of his crew were up on deck,
getting ready to take her out for some practice. As we went by, I
asked him if he wanted to race, and he replied "How much money do you
have?" My reply was "How about we race for boat ownership.. a straight
bet, yours for this one." He new he couldn't win and wisely said no.
