You're still going to want to take it out a couple times a year and pressure wash, etc. The "least maintenance needing vessel" is known as SBEB. Or some body else's boat. Boats need maintenance, they're like dive gear. Their job is done in water. Things that sit in water a lot need regular maintenance.

I fully expect that there will be maintenance with a boat and I plan to do it myself. Im not afraid of hard work, and I often look for it. Obvious, if you take a look at my life. I will look after it and make sure to have any repairs taken care of quickly whether I learn to do them or have them done. I do the same with my car that is still in good shape after 13 years. I sometimes sorta enjoy the doingness of it, I take an almost pleasure. Other times I do it in a more surefired fashion, taking care of what needs ot be taken care of. Depends on time.
I have already looked into boating license classes and the test itself. I pass and live near boat stuff. I want to go in and look at stuff, but havent yet because I dont know what Im looking for or what to ask about. Do I want a canoe? Yes!! Do I want a sloop? Yes!! Do I want a speedboat? Yes!! A bateau? Yes!! A barge? Of course.
What Im askin here in my usual funky way is : Want to go boat shopping with me?
