I have lived here over 2 years now and have never experienced any bug problems. Flies or mosquitoes....I assume because the water moves with the tide and it is salt water.

Lucky!

I can't sit outside. I get attacked immediately by mosquitoes.
They like my fatness.

Where I live (Northern NYS) we also get the infamous Adirondack black flies. They can certainly ruin your day. I'm just on the good side of the line from bad to totally horrible. About 6 miles in road distance and about 500' in elevation make a BIG difference!

My very favorite boat is my brothers. All's it cost me is a little gas money.

I get that - keeping my old Sea Ray bowrider going wasn't cheap but I did most of my own maintenance. An appropriately sized pontoon boat is much easier to keep in shape. Hose off the seagrass deck, wipe the seats down with a little seat soap and you're good to go - and no bilge or transom plugs to worry about.

My biggest expense with the pontoon is the ridiculous insurance cost.
Over $400/year for a boat that gets maybe 30 hours a season on a very low-traffic lake.
