Greetings from Grayslake, IL fellow Boaters!!

Hello,

My wife and I are future live aboard retiree's. I am a retired Army Officer on my 2nd career just counting down the days/years until we can make our final live aboard purchase. My goal is a steel hull, blue water vessel that is between 68' and 80'. We plan on getting our "Captain's Licenses" to ensure we have a basis of official knowledge to go with our water experiences.

Thank you!

Happy and Safe Boating!!

Erik & Jennifer

Re: Greetings from Grayslake, IL fellow Boaters!!

Hi!

We have some family members that will also be with us. My young adult son has Autism, and my mother will most likely also be with us. I honestly think that we might focus on the 68' - 72' range. Those levels have all the redundancies that I am looking for and the performance for the type of traveling that we want to do. Nordhaven and Bering vessels are the blue print.

Hope you are well!

Erik
