Mornin' Pat

I missed my boat at first, then I remembered that every time I took it out I had to work on it and spend money....

Morning Charlie! Yeah, I love being on it, but it's a lot of work. Lot of money, too, between maintenance, insurance, and winter storage.

Boats are great, for other people.

I had the 18' stingray bow rider, very much like yours.
Right out of the box, it was being worked on. I guess because they spend more time in storage than being used, they break.

Some of my antique cars are the same way. You spend a whole day getting them to run, then take them out for a few hours, only to park them for another year, which starts the process over.

Yeah, our 39 Ford is like that. This year was the worst for the boat, only had it out once, for 45 minutes, and it broke. With insurance, storage, and that repair. that 45 minute ride cost me 900 bucks. Yeah, that was enough!
