You just take the boat to the travel lift and it hoists out pretty easy. Under 1 or 2 boat bucks for in/out lift, dry storage, and paint if you DIY is reasonable for smaller vessels, like under 30’.

The tough part is scheduling and finding a boatyard if there’s not one close.

You have to pretend the DIY is free, or even fun. Boat people are usually not cheap to hire.

Costs a lot of money to make people put up with boat owners.

If you don't enjoy working on boats owning one sure would get expensive. I guess I'm lucky in that I don't have to pretend? Sure beats office politics, I wish it paid nearly as well as computers.
