I was a little skeptical at first, but this looks like it will be a very interesting project. I hadn't thought before about the atmosphere of the '90s, and how that worked with the effect of the Animorphs books on the reader.
And, not to be a Douchey McNitpick, but...
yacht trips were a regular occurrence
IIRC they owned a sailboat, which, yes, implies some serious disposable income, but isn't quite in the same class as a yacht. The major change in their circumstances after Eva's "death" also implies to me that it was a luxury they probably couldn't really afford, and that they were living to the very edge of their means, if not a little beyond. Which, when you think of it, is also pretty '90s, and pretty in tune with what we see of Peter, though not Eva so much.
