MY Jane and I have decided to sell Georgian Spirit. In the next week or so, Jane will be writing up a description and putting together an ad for Boat Trader and Kijiji. Those of you who know us will also know that we share a deep passion for Georgian Bay. “So why do you want to sell your boat?”, we are asked.
The answer is really quite simple. We want to be able to do other things besides boating. Especially, we want to travel, we want to be able to spend some of the cold winters in warmer climes. Don’t get me wrong. I love boating. To me, it’s a lot more than just being on a boat out on the water. It’s about the people you meet and the friends you make. Boaters are the best. But we can’t do both.
I have made so many friends in my 30 years of boating. Friends that I don’t see for months over the winter but when boating season begins, we take up where we left off the summer before. Some of my boating friends have become more than just boating friends. They have become friend-friends. People like Paul & Shelly, Larry & Marge, Berc & Roza, Harry & Rina and Brian & Lona.
We are keeping our dinghy and the plan is to try our hand at camping up on Beausoleil Island. That way we can feed our passion for the Bay, visit our friends and also be able to do those other things I talked about as well.
So if you know of anybody who wants to buy a great boat, send them over to me. It’ll be a private sale so no brokerage fees will be involved.
Life Unfolding 
Must have been a tough decision, but I understand. With other friends who are also avid boaters I know what a huge commitment (both time and money) is involved, and it rarely leaves room for other pursuits. Good luck with the sale and the upcoming life change.
