Gatto Nero has the solution: 2 boats. Get the small one first, when you buy the bigger boat, don't trade, just keep the little one. I think most islanders have multiple boats, although some are canoes and rowboats for kids and guests. Others are very old, a benefit of fresh water boating. All winter long when non-lake acquaintances at cocktail parties comment on how much gas a boat uses, you can smile and say "We save a lot of gas by just taking the little boat (for small groups)".
