Probably the worst is having a wife or girlfriend. At least with boats you can legally have more than just one.
With boats you can have one for comfort ( wife ) and one to get your blood pumping ( girl friend ).

"Most of my money has been spent on boats, bikes, and good whiskey. The rest I just wasted."

Quote of the year. Maybe the decade .

I don't drink, smoke, or gamble, so I am not going worry about my boating vice.

I have the mathematical solution for those whom wish to torment yourselves. Do all the math and then use the time on OSO as part of your final calculation. The OSO factor would be calculated as follows: each hour or post on here equates to a $1000 reduction or 4 hours of use tabulated into your calculation. Now we can all be happy with our accounting. By my figures I'm making $$$
