Re: What happens to all the wannabees?

This wannabe leave for Cape Town tomorrow to sail on a 48 ft cat, cross an ocean, visit 5 countries on 3 continents in the next 3 1/2 months. Not too shabby for a wannabe I’d say. Happy New Year...

Re: The Live aboard stereotype.

[i had my boat at Waterford. Southshore and LYC. The higher the monthly fees the better the boats. Waterford and LYC have the nicer boats of the three marinas I’ve had our boat at.

Can Boats Be Traded In?

Is it possible to trade in a boat during the buying process if the boat that is being bought is a broker boat? I have a Cruisers Yacht 3870 but we want to buy a Hunter 45 DS (2009 - 2012).

Re: 40 or 42+ Cat?

Check out the Bali 4.0 & 4.2. IMHO great use of space and idea. Hoping they'll have a used owners version in 2 years for us to grab.

Re: Prospective live-aboard reality check
