I disagree. It's just different than what most people do. It has its pros and cons and, as Big R noted later in his post, it gives you the ability to kite in places that landlubbers can't reach. If I could kite by boat every session, I probably would. It seems to lend itself to a more enjoyable kiting session overall and wind conditions away from land seem to be much more consistent.

Keep charging by boat. Like Jim said, it just takes a little planning.
