Mike,

You are very brave man for actually keeping track of expenses and posting them. Or, you could just be a complete wild man!

The amount is comparably small when considering the cost of a comparable new boat. And the argument has been made here before that one would be hard pressed to find a comparable new boat. Don't get me wrong. There are many boats out there that I covet, nay lust to own. But comparable are few.

Granted, these are not the best of times. Most of us are really watching the bottom line and tightening the belt to keep food on the table and a roof overhead. But truth be told, who knows of a cost effective hobby? And when you factor in passion money has very little value. 227 would be a steal at 10K.

Interesting that just a list like that
tells the story!

But not in such a list is whispering along a quiet estuary

with an electrick motor you built yourself.

THAT'S IMPRESSIVE!
