I have tried the education approach, it seldom 
works as most already "know" the facts and will 
not listen. I do agree it is partly jealousy, that 
and a desire to kick folks who may be more 
vulnerable, an unfortunate trait of us human beasts.


come on... no place
> is perfect.. and some a LOT less than others..

Very true. We need to strive for the ideal, right 
now we seem to be just trying to hang on to what 
we've got while it is slowly slipping through our 
fingers and many seem to not know or care.


it is also a reason NOT to have those huge 40ft 
plus boats if
> you cannot afford one...

Agree 100%, and besides a smaller boat can be more 
fun in many ways, and less hassle almost always. 
Just not as roomy. Oh well.

The last time the Alabama Water Police stopped me 
for questioning as I was boarding my vessel and 
did the de facto search, oops I mean safety 
inspection, they asked me point blank, (verbatim) 
"do you have a job"? (??!!) NO BS. Wonder what 
THAT was about? Oh, they just are suspicious of 
anyone who might be living anchored out on a small 
boat, see they don't like 'bums' hanging 
around...geeze.

I sure hope so.

It is, still, but the trend appears not so good 
for the future right now.
