Sold my 150 years ago...funny but I don't miss it. A day sailing down wind
is much better indeed.

I gather from what you are saying that the high cost of liability
insurance is driving up the cost per hour to unreasonable levels?

As a point of curiosity, approximately what does the annual insurance
on something like a Cessna 172 cost, in round numbers?

Whew. I'm glad to hear somebody finally say that. Sailing is better
but I sure wish I could do both.

Back when I was just a pilot, I would think sometimes after a flight:

Wow, that was $100.

What would I rather have for $100 than the memory of what I just did.

Nothing.

Now that I'm a sailor and boat owner, there is list of boat stuff
about two and a half pages long.
