And the only people that NEED to use boats are us islanders.
How big is to big? That's easy, any boat bigger than mine is to big.

WOW.... I'm a bit behind in forum activities and am just now getting caught up again. Now I remember why I haven't been on the forum for a while!
This whole thing about needing boats is interesting. I absolutey NEED my boat for my own mental wellness.
I suppose you need to travel via boat to get to an island but you don't need to own a boat to do that. I've been asked more than once to bring people to their island homes because they don't have anything more than a canoe. Those same folks stay on their island all summer except for occasional visits to the "mainland" to stock up on supplies again. That's the sort of thing that the Winni taxi was great for. I have indeed met some people who like island living but not boat ownership!
