I remember when for a few 1000 more you could buy a 32 ft egg Harbor

The Ingenity makes me think it is the “home version” of the Navy’s Littoral class ship.

I retired from the Army 16 years ago and I am 5 years out from retiring from my second career. Thinking about it, but the Admiral says that it is a nice place to visit and a long way from the grandkids when they start showing up. Who knows what will happen in those few years.Hey, why not?! It's funny because I was just thinking about selling my boat and truck to stay here in Colombia. It sounds crazy, but the seed is planted and I'm thinking more seriously about it. Costa Rica sounds awesome, it's on my list of my next destination. Costa Rica or Guatemala
Edit: another thought. I didn't know this, but a lot of these countries offer retiree residencies. Actually I've met some "retirees" here: ex military in their 30's just hanging out and living good.
It was so nice a week ago I put the summer beer in the fridge. Now it feels like Southern California here.

Potential over compensation…. ?
I've heard from friends it's unlucky to drive a trailer without a load on it. So some guys keep one of these in the back seat for the "empty" times between loads. No idea if that's true or if people are just being funny. Either way it's always entertaining to see.
I am struggling with changing to a Scarab 285 from an SX240, I appreciate the pictures along with the pricing!
It’s not, but the chocolate makes it versatile. One Snowdrift Porter to go.That Dunkel isn't a summer beer. I'll be along shortly to take it back to colder shores
