my youngest son and I, have recently got a new to us 45 ft narrowboat it is not our first boat, we have been boating since he was 10, he is now in his 40s,,but the funny thing is he has ocd with this boat,if we have a drink, he wipes the table straight after,he took his steering dad a drink and spilled a bit, out came the clothes, he is polishing it all the time. I am sorry to admit he even polishes the mushroom vents I like a boat clean,, but he has gone over the top. hilda

I have CDO. It's like OCD except you have to get the letters in the right order.

It'll die away if he's in his 40s. Tell him he's spending too much time doing 'woman's work', then he'll maybe start to let it slide!  |

Yeah, you just have to encourage him to get more involved doing "bloke stuff"

I think it is a good thing , it would be hurtful if he was showing no respect for the boat
