Love my boat but no time,do I sell ????
Your priorities are seriously out of order. You are obviously letting family
and work obligations interfere with what's important. If this is connected with your wife's objections to spending more time on the boat, explain that a mistress with a motor is preferable to the other kind. "Jamrocpal" wrote in message ...

Is there any possibility you can rearrange some priorities and get out on the boat, say, 6 to 8 times a year. I know that's still not many days for something that is as expensive as a boat - but then again how many activities in your life to you "love" that much? How many relax you in that same way? What is is that prevents you from spending more days? I'd rather focus on creative ways to get yourself out on the boat more than on what else you can use the money for. Good luck. |

Find a buddy who has a boat and could use a crew once in a while.

Jam,
Think about selling half interest in your boat, or perhaps renting it out to qualified people, if you're going to rent, check with your insurance carrier about liability coverage..

Two possibilities come to mind:
1/ Circumstances beyond your control have conspired against you - entirely possible, it happens all the time. If so, is that going to change in the foreseeable future? 2/ You only say you love it, but you don't really, not on a deeper level, or you would go out on it more. Maybe you love the concept. Maybe you have really good times on it, and happy memories but are very aware of the work involved as well (, arranging trips, calling friends, travelling to the boat, buying groceries, cleaning, maintenance, winterizing...), and the balance doesn't work out favorably. Maybe lots of things. Figure out the maybes and you might answer your own question. ==== Charles T.
