    Sell it!  And my niece's husband would be there with cash in hand.  (They're boaters, and I'm not fond of water)

    Yeah, I guess a boat like that would be worth around $25,000.

    A new 28' Bayliner is worth much more than that.

    Ok then, sell it.  That is a much better idea.  This post was edited by Art Lover at February 18, 2021 7:26 AM MST

    Sell it and using an apartment finding and real estate service that will house me without going through over emotionality to do it because, I think everybody is insane and I want to be alone. I tried.

    I know, but, I'll get smoking pot lazy and not swing my arms enough around to do things. Way to vegetable for a boat. Maybe if I got a safe raft to float away down the alleys of sin and know no more. This post was edited by CosmicWunderkind at February 17, 2021 4:13 PM MST

    I would keep it for a few years, rent a slip at Kelly's Island in Lake Erie, and live on it during the summer. Yeah, right. No...I would sell it.

    I think it would be a good experience to live on a boat.

    I agree. Kelly's Island is a tourist hot-spot. I would spend my time fishing, drinking and screwing.

    Oh yeah! My father "old salty dog" he was called, fish every other weekend in a small skiff 5 miles in the ocean. One time he got such a bad sunburn, his forehead split open.
    I always remember his Evinrude motor and his arms and cigarettes.
    He goes...hahahahahaha look at him falling in the water to get on the boat. Cruel dad. But, I forgive him because his father was mean cop. He spent his last days making stained glass windows. I broke the fox one by hanging it too high on the wall. Spilt a glass piece but still intact. I feel like crying for life. Poor abused and confused dad. He only whacked me once. Have you been drinking? No. Whap! I was drinking. This post was edited by CosmicWunderkind at February 17, 2021 4:12 PM MST
