Hello, brand new sailor checking in

[EricVentures]

New the forum, howdy

I'm 40, zero sailing experience, currently living in Austin TX. Husband and I have been thinking about buying a catamaran to sail the world for a while now. I'm sure we're not the first couple to watch youtubers having a blast and wanting to do the same (wynns, vagabonds, you get the idea ).

We were in Tahiti this past March and it sealed the deal for us. We were staying at a nice resort and saw so many catamarans coming and going past our bungalow. Next time we're there that'll be us!

Lots of great info and people here, looking forward to becoming part of the community. I'm looking for feedback on my plan for getting certified and eventually buying a boat after chartering, hopefully I'll figure out the right place to post it.
