aquaaddict Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 hi all,i recently bought my first boat a few months ago,thats when the problems started ,so the says ,the problem is i cant get enough of it,all i can think about is fishing and my boat,as im writing this i found myself staring at my pride and joy in lust without realising it ,ive had more sick days in the last three months than my whole working career,even when im at work i find myself daydreaming about heading out in the blue yonder ,some days i pray for 30 knot winds just so ican go to work and earn a crust,i even heard my kids laughing behind my back saying "daddys got a new wife".i want 2 know if these conditions r common amongst boat owners, and does the obsession subside with time, or is it an uncurable disease .

Guest bluecod Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 I definitely think there could be some deep seated psychological problems with the rest of your family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big-Pete Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 I am no expert but what I think you are suffering from is stress, what I think you should do is take some time off work take the boat out and do a bit of soul searching. Think about this in some time soon this drought will break and it will rain for a long time and you will not be able to fish and you can rack up some brownie points at work with renewed interest and working overtime, (you will need some accessories for the boat new rods etc) So it will be a win win situation plenty of fish in the freezer and the boss will think of you as a valued member of staff. Dont forget to take plenty of photos of you holding fish so these can be placed on the fridge so the wife and kids can remember who you are. As for a cure take two pilchards and go fishing in the morning Big Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wetpatch Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Another good idea is to replace your family portriat with your boat AND TO REPLACE YOUR WALLET PHOTO AS WELL YOUR WIFE WOULD LOVE THAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robthefisherman Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 It's not just boat owners that suffer this affliction because I don't own a boat but sit at work everyday dreaming about going fishing and waste half my day reading this site. I know though that as soon as I get a boat my condition will worsen, Bring it on I say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
