All good problems to have.

I really appreciate all the feedback
House is an investment that you will enjoy for 10-100X the amount of time that you'll spend in the boat. Boat is a toy and hole in the water into which you pour money. So I like Descant's advice below. Get the best house you can, and a great used boat for $50K or less
