Duke,
What year Mako and which motor do you have?

As previously mentioned their are chaeper ways to own and maintain a boat. Trailering, storing in your yard, and even moorings (if you can get one) are all ways to lower your cost of ownership.

It is a personal choice whether or not owning a boat or joining a club is best for an individual. Their are pros and cons to both. Your choice is to own.

From a strictly cost comparison (not including time and effort of ownership) their is no way you can buy a comparable boat, put it in a slip, maintain it, and insure it for less than a membership.
