Serving Coastal New England ~ Cape Cod ~ Nantucket ~ Martha’s Vineyard P.O. Box 87; on Broad Sound; Nahant, Massachusetts 01908 (USA) In the end, boat ownership is for those who enjoy boating so much they are ready, willing and able to put up with the hassles and give up other forms of entertainment and sports. It leaves behind those who would enjoy being out on the water if International only it did not cost so Institute much or take Marine so much Surveyors you if you Registered are above a step-10 Yachts on your & Massachusetts Ships driving record; have & no Certified boating education, Marine or have time to prepare for, to clean up after, etc. 52-years in the marine sector ~ 36-years Accredited So many of them are former boat owners, who had no idea Surveyor a loss insurance claim.

Let’s say you have a 29’ Sea Ray powerboat with (2) smallblock, 230 horsepower Mercruiser Fuel-Injected engines. Nahant Magazine | 16 A+ Rated Business @ Better Business Bureau PRIVATE The best fuel-efficient, & CORPORATE most economical YACHTS speed ~ POWER is called & SAIL More ~ math HIGH-PERFORMANCE for the boat owner based on RACING a conservative BOATS COMMERCIAL “Cruising Speed”. This CHARTER is between half & COMMERCIAL and three-quarter PASSENGER boating season VESSELS ~ HIGH SPEED FERRIES engine throttle; usually at 3200 – 3500 RPM’s. Each engine is burning 17-19 gallons of fuel per hour times (2) engines; that’s 36-gallons per hour. The average gallon of gasoline at the marina last year was $4.26 per gallon. The math – 36 gallons times $4.26/gallon = $153.37 per hour. If you take a cruise from Lynn to Boston Harbor; around Boston Harbor for a little sight-seeing and back to Lynn, this would be a five and one-half hour trip. The math – Five and one-half hours times $153.00 per hour = $765.00 for the trip if you only stay at “Cruising Speed”. Now let’s say you only do a trip like this twice per month and you only do your boating from June to October which is the average boating season in New England, the “Cruising Speed”. “Can you hear me now” throttle-jockeys? What must also be factored into boating is that monthly payment; let’s say $495.00 seems the average times twelve months = $5940.00. I do not know of one boat owner in New England with a low boat payment any where near this but work with me. Now there is insurance, and God help Toy” if and if and if ---. Now comes the storage, winterizing, covering and spring commissioning. Figures and facts can’t be altered here; that 29’ boat will cost another $6,750.00 - $7950.00 per year; lets say $7 grand to make the figures easy. Fuel = $7650.00 (if the fuel prices do not get up to the anticipated $5.50/gallon) Boat payments = $6,000.00 Insurance = $950.00 Storage, winterizing, spring commissioning = $8,900.00 Slip-fee/dock-fee = $3,900.00 Food, beverages; swim wear, etc = $925.00 Bottom painting, engine tune-up waxing/cleaning = $3,425.00 Total boating expenses for the year = $28,150 or $2,347.00/ month Now you know what BOAT means: Break Out Another Thousand nahant_mag_spring_21_26.indd 16 4/1/<strong>2021</strong> 10:32:36 PM
