I understand what you're saying - to a point.
If the boat was Warpath, or Betty cooks KAAMA, no expense would be spared.
But my 33 yr old Pantera is just an old boat at the end of the day.
On another note, I recall pulling a roll of 33 and a McD's napkin out of my tool pouch to bandage my hand after shooting a roofing nail into it. Never even climbed down the ladder, just kept working.
