Where's the "Downpayment on a nice house in Vancouver" category
I've spent lots (more than I'm willing to post on here in case Irene peeks in), but I've also saved lots by buying almost everything used or going DIY (ie. stands, sumps).
The way I see it, we all need something to keep us out of trouble & though expensive, reefing is generally a good way to spend your time, build something beautiful & meet great people.
(In terms of costs, let's just say most serious reefers I know spend about $1000+ just on Boxing day sales every year).
