$$ and more gear to break. If I had a boat in charter I'd put a water maker on it to reduce the number of times charter guests had to hit the water dock.

The amenities on charter vessels are in a bit of an arms race with gen/ac pretty much the standard for all but smaller monohulls. Water makers are creeping in. The amount of gear you can load on a boat doesn't seem to have much limit. I'm pretty happy with a safe boat and cold beer.
