In our port we have halve a dozen of junkers but all the rest are very well cared for liveaboards who take pride in both the mechanical and aesthetic condition of their pride and joy.
Unfortunately some people are slobs in whatever walk of life they move in and you will always get that I'm afraid.
Its got nothing to do with race, creed, colour or religion a slob is a slob and you can put them in a 5* hotel and it'll be a slobs house in no time.
Totally agree. And I don't see a requirement of being able to take the boat out as a quality of a good live a board. However, it does seem that the folks that don't use their boat much just have a tenancy to not care for it. And, there is a correlation with wealth and cleanliness. And a live a board can often live on a boat cheaper than a house in town. Poor people just seem to not care about it or just don't want to spend the time or money to take care of stuff. That's probably why they get the reputation... good or bad.
And that's why I don't rent to poor people. I just don't want a slob. And, yes, I can discriminate against poor people.
