I'm with you man - I really would like to put some money in mine this winter (guages, interior leather, etc....) but this winter is the new Dock and Boat Lift. Got my permit working it's way though the system right now. Should leave me broke until next year this time, but well worth it - I'm even renting a 60FOOT excavator to do a little preventative dredging.

Artie, I'm about to start something similar but the "city" only allows an outbuilding totalling the heated square footage size of the house.
So... about to put an internal sliding door from the dining room into the attached garage with a secondary heat pump installed so I can knock down the 25 x 40 toy house and build a 75 X 50 foot shop out back.

You have no city restrictions like that? I'm sure you've checked but just in case?
