So, sailing boat/yacht or speedboat?!!?

I like the idea of a sailing boat ... with accommodation so I can escape this cruel world!!

Someone said Boats? What you need to know? If you want something fast but posh you need to look at cruisers!! Fairline, Princess, Azimut, Cranchi are just a few makes.

I would like to advise you now though that the cost for a 2nd hand one is £120k upwards......depending on size obviously but something around the 30ft mark.

Also take into account mooring, servicing, insurance

If u're interested this is an expensive hobby to have This is an excellent example LINK

Not to me! Owning a boat is a way of life....though here in the UK I'm not sure where you'd use it to go as the sea is rough and the weather most of the time $hit.

But many Brits will buy a boat and keep it in a marina abroad and then just go for their holidays and use it going around the places there.

Boxster is a GREAT car. Very good handling, great balanced chassis, very quick fold down roof

DOn't expect to be wowed by straight line pace though. ITs plenty nippy enoguh, but IMO needed more power. I've not tried the modern S range, but I can't see 20bhp or so giving much more "umph".

Still, i'd take a Benelli, and buy a runaround car, with some change still left over, rather than either of those two.

As for poor mans porkies, only ever said by people with no idea what a boxster can do

Oh, buy a Jetski instead (Stand up, not a poofy sit down) of a boat (I only read page 1, seems its progressed somewhat )

Proper good workout
