What I posted is really just a saying for people like us who did not enjoy a boat. But, we do enjoy the peacefulness of relaxing and looking at the water( river, lake, ocean). We had a small lake home on Watts Bar near Spring City, and we spent most of our time sitting on the back porch. We sometimes used the boat to go to a restaurant, but not much else. Kind of like having a pool to us(another topic).I 100% disagree. Been a happy owner for over 20 years, yeah there have been some crappy days but the happy outweighs the crappy by a mile.
