G'Day Doug and all,

Not only way cheaper in dollar terms but yachting seems to use a lot of time
to keep the boat maintained and a fair bit just to get it on the water.
Years ago I had a choice between buying a yacht or a kayak. But I was very
time poor so the kayak won hands down. No regrets whatsoever at that
decision!

All the best, PeterO
