Gorgeous. It would be great to own if one had the money to pay someone
to keep it up.

Gorgeous.

It'd become your life.

Shilshole is just down the canal from my office. Wish I had reason to
frequent there more often...

Seems to me that if you can afford the boat, you can afford to have someone
else do the work on it.

Depends on what kind of boating you're doing. Also the size, make,
materials, power, sail, etc. If you enjoy the process of maintaining
a boat, you can save a huge amount of boat-ownership cost. I do all
my own maintenance because, for me, it's part of the bliss of owning a
boat. In fact, it's just about equal to taking it out. There's a
well used maxim: "cruising is fixing your boat in exotic locations."

Some folks love sanding and varnishing.

You possible could that is, if not for wasting your time posting here.

People who own these types of boats DO have the money to pay someone ELSE to
keep them up.

He said from the high desert in Bum****, Utah. What's the boats per
capita figure in Utah (other than aluminum)?

I know the number of assholes per capita is high in the immediate
vicinity of Steve the bigot's shack.
