The big problem with the Ovnis is that Aluminum is pretty low on the anodic scale and a small electrical problem can cause major damage. There was an aluminum boat down in Rhode Island that went from being in good shape to having to be total lossed over the course of one season due to bad stray current problems in the marina it was at.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
