You can get a 15-20 yr old 21-23 ft cruiser for $6-9k (it should be big enough for Lake Michigan). If I hated it, I could sell it in two years for $2k less.
I grew up on a river, so I have experience with smaller boats. I am fairly sure I can store it in the winter for a fairly cheap price.
Any thoughts? Anyone have a boat and love it or had a boat and hated it?

There's an old joke about the definition of boat being "a large hole surrounded by water into which one unceasingly pours money and time."
That said, if you buy one, I want to go out on it.
