A friend of mine used to work in a yacht club, albeit a very small one on a river, not the sea. He was firmly convinced that at least half of the boats belonged to the owners of craft businesses. He was of the opinion that the boats were bought with black money, either to be able to do something with the money or to sell the boats again later and launder the money that way. I don't know if that's true.

I have the same feeling when I'm around neighbourhoods with nice houses, real estate is crazy around here so I know the prices and so even anything remotely "nice" or "big" or "not touching the neighbours but they're kinda right there" is in the millions immediately. Can't help wondering who all these people are.
The answer of course is generational wealth, same with the boats.
Believe it or not. There's as many reasons to own a boat as there are to own a house. And many more uses for a boat.
Weird thing. A boat is much more affordable than a house nowadays. Hell I'd live on a boat. That shit would be awesome.
Owning a boat
Pros:
- You'll be able to survive the rising sea levels caused by global warming.
Cons:
- You won't survive the super hurricanes caused by global warming.
If you really think about it, no human was ever meant to go on a boat for they are not designed around humans. I think they're for the illuminati lizards.
Floating homes for alcoholics? Pretty much anyone who can sign a down payment contract.
It’s like when you drive through an area that’s all McMansions you’re like “how they hell are there this many people with enough money and poor enough taste to own all these McMansions”? I guess the thing is that money people property sprawls out, whereas most of us live in a container city down a hole clustered around a sewer outlet so thousands don’t take up that much space.
It's usually a divorced guy
This boat made me fixated on the idea of buying a boat and living in it.
While the buying part is plausible.
The living is a lot fucking harder.
You have to really like being on the water. It's just as hard as living in an RV off grid.
