And those costs can be very significant on a 45 ft boat, easily 1 or 2



thousand at many boatyards. Then you also need to add in the cost of



spring commissioning and bottom painting, another 2 or 3 thousand,



possibly more. Last but not least, don't forget insurance. That



depends on the value of the boat, size of the deductible, type of



policy and the scope of your boating area - at least a couple of



thousand for a typical 45, probably more. Routine maintenance costs



for engines and generators will also add another 1 or 2 thousand, much



more if major work is required. On top of all that add in at least 5



to 10 percent of the purchase price for outfitting the boat the way



you want it in the first year of ownership - seemingly little things



like dock lines and fenders add up fast, and big things like



electronics, dinghies and outboards add up really fast.



I just knew there was a good reason I downsized to an 18'er on a trailer on a parking lot in a



Marine Base!

Poor boat...spending all it's time baking on black asphalt when it should be spashed once in a while.



Ya, just like YOURS in your ****ing LANEWAY...ASSGASKET.



SHUT THE **** UP, you add NOTHING.



What's a laneway?

I certainly don't have one. Maybe Simple Slammer is confusing me with someone else.

I remember seeing your boat with the 5 ft beam wedged tightly between
your house and your neighbors. Is that an asphalt driveway the trailer
is parked on?
