That right there may be the most sage advice so far!
Everything that I need to do to maintain my boat costs in the thousands. It's no joke that B-O-A-T really stands for "break out another thousand" My wife is constantly complaining that my $35K boat has already cost us $80K.
BTW - full disclosure....I agreed to put the For Sale sign on it this season. If I manage to sell it I will be looking to downsize to a center console that I can put in and take out with ease.
