[[A banner states: TEN UNASSAILABLE REASONS TO SELL YOUR CAR AND GET A BOAT INSTEAD. A boat captain emphatically shouts about boats.]]
Captain: Number one! Boats can float!
Captain: Number two! Boats will never get a flat tire and strand you on the highway!
Captain: Number three! Being in charge of a boat makes you a captain!
Captain: Number four! Boats can be tall!
Captain: Number five! Cars eat too much!
Captain: Number six! Cars are a problem!
Captain: Number seven! Boats rule! Cars drool! In a metaphorical fashion OR for real if there is a radiator leak in the car!
[[A bystander interjects.]]
Bystander: This is GREAT so far but I need your ASSURANCE that you are going to illustrate each point with an unattributed photo found on Google Image Search.
Captain: Number eight! A BOAT is wet on PURPOSE!

I wrote a little reminiscence on Patreon (free/unlocked) — including a first-since-then reprint of the photocomics I made at the time, documenting the trip!
