Well, any time there are provided boats, it gives the appearance of prestige.

The fact that we have no one owning those particular boats is a different issue (they're fairly new here), and the fact that we have a meager youth program is a separate, different issue.

I don't disagree that these are both valid concerns that we should work to address, but I don't think getting rid of provided boats would make us appear to have our act together either.
