How much more? I cherish you and others that post budgets. So much gratitude from me. I Was planning $6k a year, after a proper
refit before leaving (and that counts too;-) I'll have a seperate account/budget for pre
cruise costs) So
maintenance on a 30-38' boat per year I have in mind a 6k per year
budget. Also planning to set aside seperate $20-30k for the 10-20 year big items on other unseen emergencies. Does 6k seem reasonable to you or others that have experience?
