Completely off topic, but somehow I find a daily commute via boat seem like a nice and cosy way of going to work. Where did you go from and to, if you mind sharing?
I used to commute from Bainbridge Island to Seattle. It's not bad for a couple of years, but it starts to get old and isolating. It was very effective for some growth that I went through, but became an annoyance as my designs and ideas began to vastly overwhelm my ability to execute and lead a number of teams to execute.
Looks like a very beautiful place! Of course everything mellows out and becomes "normal" with time.
