I wonder how many people have moved to their boats and how many have moved their boats to them. I know if I could I would have mine outside my back door!

It is about 75 to 80 miles ... takes 1.25 hours. The southern route is longer but has less traffic and is far more pleasant than stressing thought downtown St. Louis. The last 30 miles are straight, level 2 lane, interspersed with 4 lane divided ... traffic is usually 'on the move' or passable ... not a hassel at all.

After reading all of these I am so glad my boat is in the water all year. Takes about 20 mintues to get to the boat, not including a stop for ice. Once at the boat I can be sailing inside 10-15 minutes. Those long Saturdays on the boat are nice, but it's really those cool evenings with a couple hours on the water after work that make the expense and hassle moorage and bottom paint worth it.

I hate to have to top everybody here, I live in Ventura Keys,
My boat is 25 feet down my gangway to my dock - I can be in the Pacific Ocean in 10 minutes. I sail about 3 times a week --
125 times last year. My boat is so amortized I could give it away
free at this point.

72 miles, about 1:10 if I don't stop at Subway in West Point (VA) for subs to carry onboard.

I used to live three minutes from the boat when I lived on the Eastern Shore. That was great for going to the boat to work on it or to take a nap. On the other hand, it was a 45 minute motor from the dock out the creek to the Chesapeake where I could raise the sails. I had a four hour tidal window to get out of the creek and back in again for a daysail. Now, even though it's an hour to the boat, when I'm there it's a ten minute motor out of the harbor to sailing water, and I can go at dead low tide. I like this ever so much better!

Fifty-two miles of winding road (about an hour and 20 minutes) through three small towns, numerous country churches, and past a spectacular 100 acre field of sunflowers, all facing the same direction. Brookville Lake is due west of my home, so, if it's raining here, it has usually already passed over the lake by the time I get there, making it seem as if the sky is always brighter over Brookville Lake.
