How are you handling the anxiety of being a half day or more travel to your vessel? We are contemplating the ownership of a larger Sea Ray that will reside on the west coast of Florida.
We live in Kansas City and have always been within 3 hours travel time to our boats in case of an emergency.
The dreaded call from a marina/dock captain or neighbor that your boat is "taking on water" is a concern.
A good insurance policy and quality maintance is a given. That said, what are you doing, if anything, to sleep well at night? The only thing I can think of is having a local Captain on retainer.
If that is the answer then I need to build that into the operational costs.
Thanks in advance for your (always excellent) responses!
