Sailboats…

Well…damn, finally got the thumb to stop bleeding and that was almost a full day it continued to ooze blood, and now my left arm really hurts after getting two shots in it this morning…but, that’s not what this is about…every day, I ride past three marinas with the biggest one near Lake Michigan that has a lot of boat storage areas that must have at least a hundred boats in them…and one thing that I noticed a while back is how many of them have never moved over the summer and lots of them look like they haven’t moved in years…and that leaves me confused…I mean if you have over a hundred grand in a boat, why wouldn’t you use it? Some of them are owned by the boat broker I’m sure but a hundred of them? There are even a pair of them that are the same model that sit right next to each other but with a little different color combination and names on the back of them…they have to be close to 40 feet in length and that would surely make them cost 100K plus…who has that kind of money to just let it sit? I guess the old saying that a boat is a hole in the water that you pour money into really is true…I still am curious where they got this money they don’t need? Oh, well…it’s not the first thing I don’t understand….
