Island living - Transportation for you and guests?

Descant · 07-27-2016, 10:04 AM

Guests are like groceries. You want them, you have to go get them. They can't just drop in the way people do on the mainland. Same for tradesmen who may not have their own boat, and want you to provide transportation. Slickcraft is right. A few handyman skills are a good thing, but if you don't have them, your neighbor on the island will teach you.

Big rule: Don't be the only one in the family who can drive the boat solo.
Little rule: Many islanders have a second smaller boat ("for the kids"). LOL. Little boats are fun for big people too.
