MadMariner has just released the results of its survey of boaters, which “set out to explore how we truly use our boats, including what we do, where we go, the gear we use and what is most likely to cause problems.”
The results seem to confirm something I’ve been noticing: Even if I make boating a top priority, and attempt to make frequent and extended use of my boat, it turns out I don’t actually take it out it that much.
Exactly 755 people participated in the 10-day web-based survey this month – and the answers they gave may surprise you.
Despite the huge bankroll most of us spend on our beloved boats, the reality is that we generally don’t go very far and we usually don’t stay out too long.
