BUT, I would suggest you continue to save (or sell) and look for a
ship that requires NO immediate attention. *This is the voice of
experience; I didn't wait, I bought a ship that needed a "little"
work, but was cheap. *I now have spent more than the cost of many
available, great flying ships, and still am not flying!


Mike, thanks so much for the advice. I understand.. a few years ago I
built a sailboat from scratch (my first sailboat) because I thought I
could not afford a boat. In the end it cost me $3000 and 3 years of
work, and it was never the sailboat I dreamed of. It rotted in the
florida heat pretty quick, so I hauled it to the dump and purchased a
larger fiberglass boat with outboard for $1000 on a trailer, ready to
sail.

This is a mistake I do not care to repeat!
