No, I don't think that would be fair, considering the motorhome is parked
on a pad with its nice awning out in a 3,800 acre national park full of tree-covered mountains, massive waterfalls, flora and fauna....or parked in a WalMart parking lot for the night, like they do. I was refering to your simulator as stating how bad it is in a boat. I like to go camping and when I do I don't take a huge motorhome. I take a tent. Why do you need all that extra crap with you anyways? It's not camping if you have to bring your home with you. Let's compare the two when it's pouring down rain, lightning popping about both of them. Now we're discussing the interior appurtances and accomodations, what human amenities they offer. I think the chart is very accurate...ignoring, of course, the 18' rolling waves....(c; I live in southern california so it only rains a few weeks a year if that. Those times its not so bad. Lighten up. You're yacht is just a floating RV in an overpriced campsite with few facilities. The waterfront property owners all over the SC Lowcountry call them "floating trailer parks", especially when some developer is trying to build one in front of their view... They don't find them a bit beautiful. Yeah well that's the problem, You live in redneck alley. Here the marinas may be overpriced but thier nice. The boats are nice and the places are pretty well maintained . They are also within driving distance of every major location in the greater Los Angeles area. Some friends of mine, who used to own a Hatteras 56, "Ivy B", have this massive 54' diesel land yacht. It cost about the same as the Hatteras. The dock fees, at home, are zero. They liked it so much, after the trip to Yellowstone last summer, they're having a new land yacht custom built for an incredible sum. It's supposed to be ready, soon....sort of like waiting for your new Azimut to be delivered. Wow that's special. Let me know where he is going with it so I can stay away from those areas. I think I am drawing a new conclusion: People that look at all the things living on a boat doesn't have compared to living in a house are the same people that look at the things tents don't have when camping. Remind me to go out in neither with you. |
