I find it interesting the difference between the post from "those that have done it" and "those that talk about it."

OK. Understood. But no, I'm definitely NOT a troll.

But this expenditure - all cash as it is - is a biggy for me. It will be my semi-retirement water-condo. Although I do plan on trips into Baja, MX and to the local islands many times. So, operationally, this "whole in the water" needs to be very sound.

I own a high-end motorhome and have for many years. I take good care of it - but as with boats - it does require fixing and replacing. So I'm no new-be to unexpected "hick-ups" down the road.

You're high end motorhome will last longer than anything that resides in sea water for any length of time. The resale is also higher. Biggest killer of engines is sea water. I can buy a condo on the beach in the Sea of Cortes far cheaper than a good size Viking, and I won't have to keep looking over my shoulder or watching the go-pro camera in a marina every couple of seconds.

Nothing wrong with Ensenada - mostly safe from the cartels, but a long way from Cabo and great fishing.
