Too big for my slip and I really don't have a group of "boating buddies". You must be thinking of someone way more sociable than I am. Thanks anyway.

Hmmm,
Well, you could buy your own island up in the San Juans, declare independence from the US and use it as your own private navy to keep away those folks you don't want to socialize with. Call it Mooreway or Mooreatania and charge boats travelling through your territorial waters a passage fee.
ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!!

Richard, if you buy that battleship, you won't need to buy an island. Just run it aground in Canadian waters. Declare bankruptcy. Nobody will take responsibility for getting rid of it. There's a food bank in Sidney, and they all love dogs.

I saw this movie sometime in the early 60's, and it set my view on how governments operate for life. It's unforgettable.
And, it's Peter Sellers.
(Yes, I know it's also a book, but Sellers made the story for me.)
