My hunch is that if being on the water is your thing, you are getting a
bigger bang for the buck with the big boats.

A return on cost analysis for a toy? I think not.



"return" need not be necessarily financial.

I wouldn't want to do that, either. I'd get on a plane at Logan, find my
first-class seat, and watch a movie while spending three hours in a

In fact, that's what I do when we go to Florida from here, except that
it takes less than three hours. And a few minutes after that, we're he

I know. You've repeated that many times. Others ... like me ... don't
share the same preference. Some of us would rather experience the trip ....
in a boat ... and for that you need a big one.

BIG blast of wind .... whoa! Gotta go check things.
