Looked at a boat with more creature comforts than the i550 and then went for a paddle to think about things, including owning a bigger boat and all the complications that come with that responsibility, e.g., clothing, housing and feeding of such a beast. 

On one hand what a pain to have to haul and paint the bottom and inspect the rig etc, and then the joy of being able to spend a night or two on board in something other than the abject misery of the i550's coffin-like house. 

I don't know....but it was an interesting way to spend day number 100.
