Not all boats are gas guzzlers. If you don't mind going slow, you can get a boat with a small diesel in it and a full displacement or semi-displacement hull (non planing hull).

For sure, some boats will become impractical and some usage patterns (running out 30 miles and back to go fishing in a day) will become impractical, but other usage will still be doable (slowly cruising around the coast and maybe traveling 1-2 day of the weeks).

And of course their is always sailboats which not only have the full displacement hull, small diesel engines configuration, but also have the sails...

I've been looking at a couple dockominiums myself. About 1/3 of what they were at the peak.
