I trust people that I have known for years, not days or weeks.

It's OK. Trust doesn't come easy, and if you've grown up in an area where you've learned you can't trust people, then it makes sense not to trust people.

That's unfortunate for you, but luckily, there are many parts of the world where the opposite is true.

it has nothing to do with what you are talking about. Nothing at all.

Someone with some type of liveaboard policy needs to try this.
Chotu, I think you just found out that your insurance won’t cover you boat sitting on your own boat, let alone anyone else!

And when you go to the police complaining that your boat has been stolen, after they stop laughing they will tell you it is a "You" problem.

Dang, someone beat me to it:
