I dont' have a problem with it. I'm saying that if I want to watch TV I'll stay at home, I go boating to get away from stuff, not take it with me. You can't get away from stuff. You exchange one set of chores (lawn mowing), for a set of boat chores (dishes washed by hand, putting up an anchor light). Thsi reminds me of some neighbors of mine that bought a $160,000.00 motor home that had about everything I can think that you can put on two wheels., Why did they buy it? Their answer is obvious. So they could go ..."Camping" ! Friends of ours have one of those, but that is their home. They don't have a house. They are full time RVers - they live in their RV - and that's what those kinds of RVs are made for. Living in different parts of the country without having to unpack. We live on our boat full time for sometimes six months. We aren't camping. We are living in various harbors and marinas without having to fly there and pack and unpack. So we aren't 'getting away from stuff'. And we like to watch TV. If you want a TV then get one. I'm not going to stop you. But there's no need to expect me to have one. I don't have any expectations for you. You can obviously do what you want. And in return, I expect you to allow us to use our boat in the way that suits us without looking down your nose at us and implying that your way is the only REAL way to enjoy a boat..
