Why not? Especially if you're being impulsive about buying it. Even if it's your money it's always good to get opinions from your soul mate about it. Her advice may even save your future regrets about the boat.

Because as a MAN you have to be accountable for all of your actions, if it was an impulse decision that you eventually regret and now the boat is a sunk cost, thats consequences you have to face
...Just speaking for me....it would be my discretion on whether or not I would want my wifes opinion, it should NOT be a requirement (at least in my household)
As long as your lady can do the same thing okay. It's your relationship do you. I don't see the problem with asking someone if the mind if you don't come home. Most married people have an expectation that their partner will come home. "I can do what I want and I don't have to ask you what I do. I'll just let you know when I get there, if I wanna let you know" just really doesn't sound like something a husband or wife would say but I guess everyone is different.That "permission" stuff is problematic. I'm grown. Everything else is coo'.

I'm good. I see this is more trouble than I'm used to.

As a MAN you should also be wise and use the options available to you before doing something stupid. There's nothing emasculating or unmanly about asking for a second opinion about certain things, especially if it's coming from the person you chose to spend your life with.
So your wife is the only option in regards to a resource for a second opinion?
1. Marriage joins your assets. Once purchased it will be her boat too
2. Boat cost go beyond a first payment. They require maintenance, payments and storage fees if docked. If not you will need a place to storage the boat and a way to transport it.
3. Maybe that money could go towards something else like the roof, the kids college fund, the next vacation.
Marriage is a partnership. If you have no interest in that marriage isn't for you. What's hers is hers and what's mines ie mines ie the exact opposite of what marriage is.
Well of course then u have to run it by her but I'm taking about nikkas who u say "let's hit the pool hall tmmrw "
And they say "I gotta see if wife cool with it"
I asked my homie for 40$ once and he had to ask his wife if it was ok
Ya'll wives aint asking ya'll permission for shyt. 
Honestly I feel the same way. Why be tied to a man who sees you as less than and really only feels like you should be the one acting committed while he still acts single.
I'm good. I see this is more trouble than I'm used to.
I'm not married but isn't having joint accounts an option?
Sure. If I'm marrying someone I imagine her being someone that's stopping me from doing dumb shyt so I'm gonna trust her the most with my future dumb endeavors
No, not necessarily. But I do value and factor in her opinion. If I didn't, I wouldn't have married herSo, basically, you're not allowed to do anything she doesn't like...
I have never uttered those words "to the boyz", but I do find it bizarre that @Ill Clinton feels his opinion of a man should matter more than his wife's
I mean think about how the other way would look. "I wanna come home babe but my boys will think I'm a punk if I leave now" 
That's even crazier 
My dad dont any of this shyt & he been married over 20 years.
Westernized men are just emasculated
Breh a marriage is literally a joining of finances. Just because you have separate accounts doesn't mean she's not entitled to that money. If you go spend a large amount of money without your wife's knowledge she can take the other party to court to get the money back. That is what the guy who owned the Clippers wife did with his side chick. She got all the money and value of the gifts back.I'm not married but isn't having joint accounts an option?
