          Not a sailboat, but still a downloaded boat. https://www.drdflo.com/pages/Projects/Printcess.html

      A friend with a boat is what you want. Same with a pool.

        It’s always good to have friends with things you want to use but don’t want to own. Another thing that falls into that category: puppies and kittens.

      Show up to race night with beers and sailing gloves. And the aforementioned knowledge of sailing.

      you join a club and are crew. it’s literally how most sailing clubs function. How the hell are you supposed to race a boat if only the owner gets to be on it? The larger the boat the more the crew you need. The fees at my club for crew are $40 a year. That’s like 1/3 the cost of netflix and way more worth it. And many clubs also have a “why buy?” club where you can captain one of the fleet boats a certain number of times a year and bring your own crew.

          You don’t need a boat, but sailing is much easier with a boat.

        Even ten years ago I was like what the heck is an American flag doing on this boat?? The American empire is like one of my least fave so can we at least use the less horrifying state flag?

          If renting an apartment carried with it a similar significant risk of drowning, there might be a demand.
