[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We cruise all the time!  In our own little 35 foot Catalina sailboat.  Plenty of room.  Back up plans for any conceivable emergency.  And plenty of emergency provisions.  Just returned from a month in the Bahamas.  That's the way to cruise![/quote]

Yeah well the 99% has to share their ship with a few thousand more people in order to afford it. [/quote]

Says someone who has never owned a sailboat.  We paid less than $10,000 for our boat.  It's not expensive.  The most expensive thing about cruising to the Bahamas is the entree fee.[/quote]

Umm we paid about $1,200 for our cruise (for the family, not per person), that included entree fees, dessert fees, appetizer fees, etc . . . [/quote]
Whereas the Catalina owners can cruise every weekend, or if they are retired, every day for the rest of their lives. We bought a sailboat at the same time we bought a condo. I have to say the condo was a much better investment, but we have a lot of great memories like sailing to St. Michaels, Wye River, Annapolis, Smith Island etc, fishing, anchoring out under the stars. You can't compare the two experiences. A sailboat is a bit more like an RV, except you spend a lot less on gas. Only time I ever regretted being on board was when a storm came up, but we have usually been anchored in a snug cove with a bottle of wine, our stereo and a pile of paperbacks when that happened.[/quote]
