I own a Chris White Atlantic 42. We've been out 4 years full time and done a trans-pacific crossing. First 2+ with a ULD 40' mono then a 36 PDQ extended to 39' then the Chris White Atlantic 42 which was our dream boat and now our reality. We got the A-42 for way less than we expected, so if you are truly ready to buy (i.e jump on a plane with cash in hand) you could likely snag a deal in this soft economy.
Here are my two cents:
1). Get cat experience before buying or building to understand what's important to you.
2). A Chris White A48 or A55 seems like a perfect fit for your plans to sail high latitudes and then circumnavigate.
3). Contact exisitng owners of A48-55s to see if someone is ready to sell.
