Two happiest days in a boat owner's life: the day he buys it and the day he sells it.

Dad had a boat (23' I/O) we kept at a marina in Weymouth, MA. We used to run it in and out of Boston Harbor or down to Plymouth and back. It was great the first few years, but it cost about $2500 a season for the dock and insurance. The last year he owned it we used it 10 times between us. He said, "That's it. $250 for a trip into the Hah-bah and back is too much." He sold it the following spring.

I don't miss the boat. I do miss Dad, though.
