Boating

I have been preoccupied with preparing to buy my new, old boat.  It is already something of a money pit. I have authorised several repairs to make it seaworthy. I did have a survey done and the boat was in very good shape for its age. I have had to replace the horn, fix some lighting and wiring. Putting the boat in winter storage.  I have been checking out marinas in the downtown Toronto area. While I was going to put the boat in the Outer Harbour Marina, I have not ruled out a change in venue. The advantage of the Outer Harbour is I know people there. But I also have my eye on some marinas closer to the core.

One thing I have discovered is that the price is almost identical in each marina. Ontario Place is still a possibility.

I had two of my brothers look at the boat on the weekend. I do believe they were impressed. I truly believe this will be a lifestyle altering vessel. There is a big learning curve.
