UHmmmmm...excuse me?  Everyone (such as myself) who plays golf have a
love/hate relationship with the game.  Some may pretend otherwise,
but... :-D
And I also 'understand' sailing.  We have a 30' Catalina that we keep in
San Diego.  It's our WaterWesty and it shares similar functions.  We can
live in it, meander about in it, and naturally, pour money into it.  But
sailing, for us, isn't about going *somewhere*, it's just enjoying the
peace and solitude and the beauty of the ocean.  And it's a peaceful
condo for winter/summer getaways.  We sailed some on the lakes around
the Phoenix AZ area in years past, and man if you want fickle winds, try
our canyon lakes - they're truly crazy.  Not to mention that deck
hardware gets a tad toasty in 114� sunshine!
