Yep. It's time for a change. My C-Dory "FishWisher" is now at the
brokers yard awaiting a younger, more passionate new skipper to
terrorize the sturgeon and salmon. I think it's time to recognize my
limits and move on.

This isn't an ad to sell the boat, heck, I think she'll find a new
owner soon. But I wonder if any of you other old geezers like me have
reached a point where you realize it's time to sell the boat 'cause you
just don't enjoy it like you did when you were younger and in better
shape.

I'm not all that old at 62, but I've sure had my share of heart
problems and I take too many meds that take the edge off. I had bypass
surgery 10 years ago, then five stents put in a year ago. I've lost a
noticable amount of strength and endurance. And I'm really getting lame
in the hips. My 89 year old neighbor runs rings around me! Life isn't
fair.

Did any of you oldsters ever sell out? Did you have regrets? Didja
realize that it was the right move after all was said and done? Maybe
you bought a smaller boat when you discovered you still needed to fish
or cruise? I'm not sure what I'm going to do after she's sold, but I do
have a motor home that I still enjoy.
