maybe we should actually be talking about value...

Maybe we're talking about stuff all wrong...

Forget the money. Seriously, as anyone who has taken a couple of college level economics classes knows, money is really just an artificial construct and, at best, is simply a means of counting virtual beans. Now if you stop to think about it, what exactly does a pile of virtual beans (or oil futures/pork bellies/whatever) have to do with the important things in your life?

Now, on the other hand...

What we're really talking about here is getting the most value for your boating dollar and the only real way to measure that is in terms of value.

Money just confuses the issue...

So, here's a question...

Two boats in an anchorage, both about the same size with the same comfort level and doing the same stuff. How would you rate their non-monetary/real world value if one cost $100K the other $10K?
