Magellan's Mind has been the family for years. So when I was contacted by a luxury yacht charter company asking to use my yacht so other people can use it for vacation, I was hesitant at first. I was assured I'd be paid a good cut, but I wasn't sure if it was worth it. This boat is my baby. And granted, I don't take my baby out all that often (maybe once every two months), I wasn't sure I wanted anyone else to use it. But I was intrigued.

After taking a week to think on it, I wondered if it would be best if I did that. After all, a yacht is there to be enjoyed. And though I enjoyed it in my mind, maybe someone else should enjoy it on the seas. Maybe some family would be able to use it for an unforgettable vacation on a Greece yacht charter when I'm sitting in my office or sitting on my balcony. Look how much fun they're having. I'm still undecided.

What do you guys think? Am I being selfish? Are you comfortable loaning at your boat to a company for some extra income?

Let me know your thoughts.
