Thank for the feedback guys. Delmarrey i am currently unemployed but i am trying to get on at the local
aluminum plant(alcan) here that you were referring too or if i can get on at the local pulp and paper plant here called Eurocan that would be nice as well. There both good paying jobs if i land anyone of them. No job equals no
boat so i am praying haha. My ambitions are high, what i mean is i want to sail the world ie: go everywhere a
boat can go, the mediterainian(spell?)
africa,
australia, the
carribean,you name it etc. i am still relatively young at 26 and i have no
kids, girl or major bills holding me back at the moment so i feel free to live out my dream. The next step is finding a boat that will meet the task of travelling the world. I ve been lurking around these boards and another one as well soaking up the information on
Water boats">blue
water boats. Preferably i would want a
catamaran but if i do get the job they still seem a little pricey. i am looking at monohulls right now and the
islander 36 has me interested. i know zac sunderland(spell?) is cruising around the world in one of these at the moment.I know he modified it a lot to as well. Is the the
islander 36 really capable of travelling the oceans as a
blue water boat? even if i have to modify it? From what i ve found by reading up is that boats by
Pearson,
Ranger,
Ericson, Mariner, Southern Cross and
Csy might be able to do
blue water crossing as well. If they are please feel free to inform me about them thanks. Oh yeah and my
price range would probably be about a hundred twenty thousands canadian (i had to write out the number of the
money because my number keys on the key board arent working dang thing) which is about ninety eight thousand american
