With apologies to David Letterman:
10. Makes You Feel Special: Anyone can buy a flashy car. Canal boats not so easy to get.
9. Makes You Feel Macho: What man would NOT want to own 14 tons of steel?
8. Extremely Safe: Takes hours to sink (plenty of time to man the life raft).
7. Educational: Many things to fix (electrical system, plumbing, etc. etc.)
5. Make New Friends: Goes so slow, every boat on the river passes you.
4. Ideal for Multi-taskers: Brew coffee, update blog, wash dishes--while crusing!
3. Save Money: Canal boats so rare, you are never tempted to upgrade to this year's model.
2. Great for Parties: Goes so slow, guests never fall overboard.
And the number one reason to own a canal boat:
It's very very cute!

You should be on Letterman with your top ten or a writer for them. Sharon is very jealous. Love, The Fong Family
