It's not fuel prices that's going to kill the boat market
"basskisser" wrote in message ups.com... NOYB wrote: "basskisser" wrote in message oups.com... Uh, no you weren't. You didn't even mention ambition. motivated=ambitious unmotivated=lacks ambition. thinking small=lacks ambition=unmotivated So, if someone is quite happy with say, an 18 foot boat, fits there needs perfectly, etc, you think they are unmotivated? Amazing. You still don't get it. Don said "think small"...not "buy a small boat". To me, the saying "think small" means the opposite of "think big"...and that translates to a lack of ambition to excel in life. |

What was the subject that Don was talking about when he said "think small"? Any idea? It was about a flippin' BOAT. A BOAT......get it? He wasn't talking about a house, a car, a bike, a horse, he was talking about A BOAT. |

You were complaining about acquiring insurance for larger boats and the cost if you were successful. My advice really was to consider a *smaller boat* that would be easier & cheaper to operate, store, insure etc etc. Up here real men have braved the North Atlantic in the dead of winter, first in dorys launched from schooners.. and now Cape Islanders (called lobster boats south of the border). In other words.. 'half the boat, twice the sailor'. |
