I agree, but my main point was that it is fairly easy to get into boating and be able to minimize storage fees (and fixed expenses) . Storing at home or even a typical storsge rental facility is reasonable. Pretty difficult to keep aircraft at home unless you live at an airpark. You can get cheap ramp parking, or outdoor storage space for a boat, but neither the boat or aircraft are going to fare well out in the elements.That is very unique to your situation though. Here where I live, communal hangar is $200 per month and individual T-Hangar is $350 per month. On the flip side, a boat slip for a 28 ft long boat (I have my eyes on one to possibly buy this spring) at a nice marina with power supply is $4,000 for the season of six months, which checks out to $667 per month, almost double what I pay to keep my plane indoors!
