Toy Collectibles
If you’re a boater, you realize that the hobby is not immune to inflation and everything from bottom paint to electronics has dramatically increased in price over the past couple years. And the family boating “budget” line has potentially eclipsed other major categories.
One way to stay in touch with boating, with exponentially less expense, is to get involved in collectible boats. They can be purchased off Ebay for less than a stainless-steel prop. You can use some of them in nearby ponds and lakes, while keeping others in in windows or on shelves. Miniature Mercury “Towers of Power” and Evinrude “Big Twin” motors are small enough to be displayed in many spots, where they can stand as reminders of days past and perhaps enjoy some appreciation over the years.
So, if you want to get more engaged in the boating hobby, without paying out much money, consider Collectible Toys. I think you’ll find them an entertaining, low cost, part of the boating world.
