No need to apologize. I've already thought exactly of everything you mentioned and many more draw backs.
You're right...small rez and the pontoon boat is derigeur here. A 32' sailboat is almost the biggest toy in the water sailboat wise. There are a couple of 36 footers and one guy who lives on a 48' that never moves. And then we have the gold chain crowd of gus with 40" cigarette triple engined offshore boats (nuts on this sized water although they can go 25 miles upriver really fast). Boats here are cheap cheap cheap...especially larger ones. But a$6K pontoon or a $8K cabin cruiser might be more apropos...or better yet befriending an existing owner. lol
OTOH I went out last night with a young blonde paramedic who is a very experienced sailor who just moved here 3 weeks ago...maybe perfect combination as a first mate. lol
