Well John, I'd say they've lost interest in boating, in favor of some other pursuit.


I would say that's probably a very true statement. For the money that little boat I had was costing
- depreciation, insurance, maintenance, storage, etc., I can rent a boat for several weeks a year.
Having an extremely handy storage place, like your driveway, would tend to make boating a more
frequent activity.

The last time I sold a boat, I waited about 15 years before getting another. Who knows, maybe this
time it'll be only ten years. We're already planning a weeks vacation with the grandkids at Smith
Mountain Lake next July. I'll rent a pontoon boat for the week or maybe a ski boat.
