Sounds nice. Although I could *buy* a pair of new Lasers for the cost

Oh, it's not quite that bad. And at one point in time, my
wife would rather have had a new Laser of her own than spend
a week getting pampered, nowadays we have different priorities.



I've been hoping a sailing resort would pop up on the Gulf coast...


There used to be one in the Keys (Rick's Place), but Rick and Mary got
out of the business. If you hear of one drop me a line.


There are several "schools" which are basically resorts but
none have as nice a fleet, and none are in the trade winds
(man, it's easy to get spoiled down there).

Hey, you're the high bidder.

Yeah but will it last?

... Too bad the reserve isn't met.


There was another Stiletto 27 on Ebay a few weeks ago where
the high bid was considerably higher, and more than I'd pay,
and still didn't meet the reserve. This one has been for
sale asking $15k for a while, plus it's fairly close to us.
Don't know how it will end up.

Wouldn't you have to pay double for the slip for one of those? That
would factor into the TCO, no?


It should, but then you'd have to admit to all those uppity
multihull sailors they're twice the boat.... In this case,
it would live on a trailer in a friend's back yard right on
the creek near our marina.
