I...Wow! 16? Maybe that should be my goal for 2017?<br /><br />It might be a challenge to use them all. But one option if you own a lot of boats is to lend them to friends or family members so that you can go sailing or kayaking or whatever together.<br /><br />This needs some serious planning and thought.Tillermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00639738519386820997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029107535174533838.post-23203518577904789592016-01-16T15:27:29.129+00:002016-01-16T15:27:29.129+00:00Np Tillerman, there's a guy locally who was ha...Np Tillerman, there's a guy locally who was has 16 so we both have a way to go.

I only own 2 boats right now but your photo has filled me with enthusiasm and determination to do a lot better in 2016.
