Welcome to the world of power boating. I do not believe it takes a
stronger man to go to divorce court over a wife who fears or dislikes
certain aspects of boating. Sail or Power.
I find myself stronger knowing that I am able to compromise my desire
to be on the water with the needs of my wife satisfied. Since I tend to
satisfy her needs first she then tries in every way to fulfill my needs
and expectation.
Illustration. A friend asked "How do I get a big boat like yours if my
wife does not want to spend the money?". Advise - buy the boat she like
even though is is a small 23 foot deep vee power boat. It will be
uncomfortable, bouncy, rocky and sometime wet. Raft off my boat during
a cold storming day and she will want those comforts too. Guess what -
three months later he bought a new 42 foot Formula boat of his dreams.
She was very satisfied.
Living on a boat or travel on a boat is always more fun with the one you
love so learn to "Love the one your With". Sounds like a song doesn't
it.
