Not sure if I chose the correct Forum category but here goes. I am selling my house and want to move to
Florida and
live aboard. I'm thinking a 30' would be great for my dog and I and I have owned and sailed that size before. I will be going it alone this time and don't even where know where to start looking. Should I look at FSBO or get a
broker? I'd like to spend $20,000 on a well maintained
boat with some
instruments and decent
canvas. I have co-captained in the BVIs but I don't plan on sailing far off the
Florida Coast. Maybe with a little experience with the
boat I'll try for the
Bahamas but right now I want to
live aboard and sail for fun.
Is $20,000 a reasonable goal? I was thinking about a marina on the
east coast between St. Augustine and Cocoa Beach. Anyone have any idea what they run around that area?
Even though I can sail, I new and alone on this adventure. Any
advice would be greatly appreciated.
