Because as I found sailing a flying fifteen at the weekend it is quite good fun to sit in a boat and have a crack with your mate whilst racing on a small lake than risk getting wet and injured in a boat that is not particularly high performance compared to a trapeze dinghy. If you want to go fast and get wet then buy a high performance dinghy or catamaran.

I also try to avoid marinas unless it is absolutely necessary. As for mooring fees, Spain and Greece had pretty decent fees from my experience.
