Some people enjoy them, some people dont...Just like everything else in life.
I have had good a bad experiences with them, just like anything else. A boat just consumes a much higher percentage of resources for cost than a motorcycle or a car.

Which is why it's a money pit. Yes, you can get enjoyment out of them, but just at a much higher rate of money than most other toys.

I grew up on the bayou, I spent more time in a boat than a car for most of my childhood. Trapper Joe on Swamp people is from my part of the world. Myrtle Grove where he fishes at is just north of the little town I am from.
