I am not even close to most of the players on here, but I also own my own business. THAT I BUILT!!! It also helps that my wife makes enough money to cover all of the household bills and keeps us in medical insurance. She builds Toyotas.

I didnt pay a fortune for my boat and shes old classic to me, but to keep gas in it and run it+ weekend overnighting expenses is what cost me the money, I overnight EVERY weekend from Friday-Sunday and it adds up....
I am a Cabling tech, I work for someone and love my job, Fiber optics/cameras/data and everything inbetween..
I also do lots of working on Mustangs as I have a Car addiction also... gave up 4 wheelin years ago as I didnt use my CJ enough to justify it anymore, down to 2 major hobbys... LOL

Wife is a nurse, I am a engineer. But we live in a expensive state that doesn't pay chit, getting out of boating as soon as I can.
Oh yea, I must not work hard, on the way to work and only have 52 hours in the first 3 days,,,,,,,,,,, but don't own the company. Lol

Im kicking around getting out of boating too!!
Wife is an MD.
Im a mid-level Exec at a big bank.
Early 30's - no kids yet
Still cant justify the expense, and I dont even have a big boat.
Surprising number of folks in Auto manufacturing participating in a hobby that takes a fair amount of expendable income. I think that says alot about the American manufacturing model...
As in - you dont see alot of chinese factory workers roaring down the in Mekong river in 25-50' powerboats.
BUY AMERICAN, DAMM!T - Our factory workers need new 525EFI's.
