Impulse Buying (That's what we do)


Day 1: A friend who owns a sailboat texts my husband with a link to an ad on Craigslist for a free sailboat, sitting on jacks in someone's yard in Maryland.

Day 2: My husband finds a boat for sale on Craigslist for 599.00 with theoretically operable motor that is already at a yacht basin.

Day 3: We drive to Maryland to look at the second boat.

Day 4: We make an offer to purchase.

Day 5: We take title and possession.


At first I didn't really understand why all the other boat owners were so interested in us, but the more time we spend with her, the more it becomes apparent that something was amiss with the prior owner's ultimate vision of his sailing future.
