I hope she gives you a mast and some sails for yours!

Beautiful boat, congrats!

Re: A gift

Thanks everyone. This purchase was irrational and irresponsible just like all our other boat purchases, so I think we will be fine!

Re: A gift

Besides all that banter, and congratulations on the dare and purchase from me as well, what design and size is your new toy? Is she an open bridgedeck cat?

At probably 7000-7500 lbs. With daggerboards. Already a competitive race boat, but has the bones and potential to be a fast, comfortable cruiser. My wife would be buying me a propane on-demand hot water heater for Fathers day, if we had just purchased that cat!

Re: A gift

My wife would have bought me a lawyer.
But my girlfriend would be re designing the decor.
