[C320-list] Do I keep my boat or not

[Leonard Hooks]

There is nothing wrong with a cabin on the water if you enjoy it when you are there. At 73, I’m using mine less but when I brought up maybe selling it, my wife said no, the kids can sell it when we are gone. 

Find ways to enjoy it as much as you can. Invite friends out for drinks at the dock or burgers on the grill.

This one may be close to many who are reaching the pivoting point in their lives, when they starting asking themselves, why do I keep my boat . I've been widowed for the last 10 years and always thought that my enthusiasm in sailing would continue into my seventies. Well a number of setbacks have put pressure on all of us. Trying to pickup the momentum we all had at one time didn’t work for some, especially after Covid. Currently my Catalina 304 has become more of a cottage on the water, sad to say.  I look forward to any kind of feedback regarding my dilemma and I thank you in advance.
