true but i don't know a term specifically for 'dude who parks a boat in his driveway 365 and talks about his boat all the time, yet never uses it'
there should be a name for a person that seeks validation for their purchases or expenditures.
Marx calls it conspicuous consumption.
So conspicuous consumer sounds right
Theoretical boat guy?
I can somewhat sympathize, boats are super expensive to maintain and fuel, not everyone has the money and time to maintain them.
