When I was a kid, my aunt owned a small one. She’d bring it to my house where my dad and my uncle did repairs.

We were by no means a rich family. It was a two bedroom house with my parents and 3 kids.

I imagine the most expensive part of these are probably dock fees?

I always assumed a good portion of them were rentals.

Believe it or not. There's as many reasons to own a boat as there are to own a house. And many more uses for a boat.

Weird thing. A boat is much more affordable than a house nowadays. Hell I'd live on a boat. That shit would be awesome.

Owning a boat

Pros:

  • You'll be able to survive the rising sea levels caused by global warming.

Cons:

  • You won't survive the super hurricanes caused by global warming.

Solution: boat in the mountains.

The boats are just coming back from the migration season.

I've had this awesome teacher. He was a boating and train nerd and looked the part.
