Not to be harsh, but everyone I know that's left the sport wasn't a boater to begin with. They were people who liked partying near water. Guys that liked the sound of "dinner and drinks at the club" or liked running 20 minutes for a 3-day boozefest tied to a different dock.

Most of the crowd I hang out with sold their perf boats and joined the cruiser or pontoon croud or they hardly use them anymore...
At one time there was a good 10-15 of us, every weekend was something new, now I'm lucky if it's just me and one or two other boats...
It must be a survival of the fittest kind of thing.....
