Porsches are fun I have owned a few and never regretted the purchase at all. Just don't buy a boat God forbid:)
Why not?
Oh no, don´t start with "boats". Thats an endless story !
Boats are awesome. The trick is to buy the
right boat for your personal needs. And the only way to find that is to go through a few of them.
I started with a motor sailer. Neither motor boat nor real sail boat, it handles like a brick but is a way to figure out if you like free (but slow), or fast (but comparatively expensive) locomotion. Tip: Check fuel use before you buy, not after. Don't wanna get a nasty surprise.
Currently fixing up a sleek and really cool looking motor boat, smaller than the first boat but still large enough for living on for a few weeks at a time. Also planning to get a small sail boat, as in small enough to hoist the mast singlehandedly, just for the hell of it.
speed and such are great, but man, i have to imagine there's nothing like sailing... especially in a smaller craft that can really haul when the wind is right.
realistically though, i rarely care to leave the house, preferring to make stuff, read, games, etc... so owning a boat seems wasteful. now renting one for a month's vacation or something... hmm.
