Trawlering vs Camping costs

I've traveled on the dirt and on the water. Like water better. Dirt has advantages too. Cost comparison - who cares??? If you have the $$$... do what you want. If you don't... then don't! Taint rocket science to calc costs on each.

I have enough time still on the dirt taking care of houses... etc. Always looking forward to more water time!

Having done both I can say that the hole in the water is much deeper than the spot on the dirt.

Not even a close call.

We have and do both. My opinion slightly different than most replies.
Wide range of cost for each "camp" vs "boat"
I recall seeing a comparison yrs ago that concluded they were roughly equal on a per foot or per pound basis.
Cutty cabin = pop-up trailer
Cruiser = class A MHome
Yacht = Prevost

I don't compare $ per mile I think $ per day and they can be done either way for roughly the same...don't travel as far on the water
Anchor out = dry camp
Marina = full service CG

I spent about the same for a used 28' Carver cruiser w 2 gas engs as our first used 28' class A w single gas eng
Spent more for current used '08 MS34 HT than '03 31 ft MHome but MS is newer & diesel MH is older & gas

I like both for different reasons & destinations...
Wife prefers boating and if I had to choose would have to say the same.
Feel fortunate we are able to both but feel many could also if they were realistic re budget and stayed within it.

Do what you love... Love what you do.
