Forklift,
Yeah....I am just about double that in Elliott Bay. I guess if I think about that the difference between 7.00 and 14.00 adds about 5 percent to the total cost of keeping and enjoying the boat. It all adds up, but do not think I am would be interested in giving up what I get there for that difference. Nice facility and million dollar views as you refer to. If I am on the back deck I have the Seattle skyline over the water and can watch fireworks off the Space Needle as I have. If on the front deck I can watch the marine activity on the Sound with the outline of the Olympic Mountains in the background at sunset. Two totally different worlds.......priceless. And convenient to most Seattle amenities and the route I travel between businesses.
I do not think anyone is going to call Seattle cheap in terms of cost of living and cost of fun. Incomes generally commensurate.
