who really owns the boats

[eric hall]

Am I missing something , we blokes seem to own all the boats. Maybe the ladies just want us to buy them then complain when we spend money and time on them. Or is that they know where we are when we arent at home.

"We" own our boat.

I do all the maint, the driving, the cleaning, the towing, the winterizing, the worrying, the fueling and I paid for it with a work bonus I made, but 'we' own it.

Next time she complains, remind her that boating is still better and cheaper than whiskey, drugs, gambling and chasing women.....maybe she'd prefer you change hobbys? Good Luck!

Someone is in the Dog house. That is the reason you started the topic I believe.

Yes I own my boat. My wife says I'm Obsessive because I sit in the drive with it making Vroom Vroom sounds and spraying myself with water.

Also she found the Giant Jars of Vaseline in the Garage.

Ewww.

I was (finally) smart enough to get a boat my wife enjoys, and I was lucky enough to get a wife who enjoys boating and fishing. First try, too!
So we have fun together, and since she knows how much fun it is, she doesn't mind me going out alone, or the expense.

It helps, though, that there aren't babies around. Those days, anything fun you do for yourself out of the house will get you in trouble, even if it's just The Look.

Or if you have a wife who just won't like boating no matter what you buy (or can afford), you're screwed. Enjoy your vaseline.

Re: who really owns the boats

I'm willing to admit, that my wife and my dog own equal shares on the boat. I'm just the chauffeur - which is A.O.K. in my book.

The Vaseline is to shine the boat with. Doesn't everyone do this? Not sure what you were thinking

Everything done in this world by males is done for sex. Don't believe it? Think back. When you were young you worked hard to buy a car SO YOU COULD PICK UP GIRLS. And as the comedian Larry Miller said, "You can get a man to do anything if you end the sentence with AND THEN WE MEET GIRLS"

So who owns the boats? WE THINK WE DO, but in reality the women of the world own everything.

Juat like cats own people, women own men. Here is a photo of my owner and one of the six boats I maintain for her.

Re: who really owns the boats

It is Our boat until I have to buy something, pay taxes, fill it up, and when I want to buy a new toy she reminds me that it is MY BOAT... All the other times it is our boat.

Re: who really owns the boats

It's my boat and she will tell you like wise. She wants nothing to do with boats. She wants nothing to do with boating in general. Even a cruise ship is out of the question.

Re: who really owns the boats

It is referred to as our boat when we speak of it amongst friends, it's my damn boat when I spend money on it, and why isn't OUR boat ready to go at the drop of a hat, aka what have you been doing all this time out there? So i guess at the end of the day, yep it's really my toy and problem.

Re: who really owns the boats

She owns the boat, I'm just the mechanic, transporter and main driver. One day she came to me and said that she wanted a boat and sold her 1970 triumph spitfire as the down payment. I figure one of these days I'm going to have to replace that car
