There are many reasons why people have "old" boats. Not always because they can't afford better. Some are classics, some may only go boating once or twice a year, some may have sentimental value, some may just like them better, who knows, there are many reasons. Also, just because you have a new(er) boat doesn't mean you won't have problems. ALL boats have problems, I don't care what year it is. Didn't your mother ever tell you not to judge a book by it's cover??? You can have someone in an old boat with a huge bank account, and you can have someone in a 150k boat that can't afford to put gas in it!! Goes both ways... (sometimes). I know, perception is reality, right?
