I'm a fan of Moxie Marlinspike's response to that post, "The Worst"[0].

Well, middle way, I guess. Or "We're not rich enough to buy crappy things", as the saying goes.

is Moxie actually sailing derelict sailboats "as far as he can take them"? While I'm admiring this, I'm also worried he's going to be marooned somewhere...

It's not so bad if he stays in sight of the main coast.

Northern Australia has a culture of running old cars and boats into the ground, kicking them over and making them go again, walking home if all fails.
