Perhaps listening to your friends & family would be helpful...

Greg, I'd suggest you NOT discard the comments of your friends & family...at least not summarily.

The fact that taking off cruising makes sense to some of us (and after all, that's the nature of...

There are many health insurance options...

...and usually the experienced cruising community can offer up many suggestions for you, along with their own experiences.

For starters, visit the threads at www.ssca.org - Cruising Discussions....

Everyone will want a bit of your money...

Chris, govt'l fees (duty, tax, use tax, sales tax) is not an 'either/or' scenario. Follow this example:

You buy a boat in the UK. You don't want to pay sales tax on the sale because you...

Want to see a similar thread on this topic?

Chris, you might visit https://members.sailnet.com/messageboard/ and look for the 'Documentation' thread in the Cruising Section.

As you already seem to appreciate, there is no straightforward...

There's no pat answer, just many variables...

Where does your water come from? Since this is a cruising forum, I'd point out that the variety of water sources from which cruisers 'jug it' or take a hose aboard the boat is pretty diverse. Don't...

Chris, you need two things...

...and SJS might, too.

First, ask for a free information packet from Bellingham. It will spell out all the choices, talk about their '10 copy minimum' and so forth. They also offer a full line of...

Steve's offering good advice...

...and as your cruising venues expand, you'll be using a very different reference scale against which to measure things.

It's not by accident that ex-Pat retirees from the USA end up looking for...

SJS:

Bellingham gives you a clear copy of the most current chart for a per-chart price of $5. You can be selective about how many large scale charts you order (vs. smaller, coastal charts) if you...

You might want to visit the forum below as there has been some comment about the towable product, which apparently does have a wind-driven supplemental system as an option.

Here's one example...

Steve's generally correct - many a 'paradise' has been discovered - but quite incorrect when you begin looking at specific opportunities. Just today I picked up an email from friends who have arrived...

You have several paper alternatives...

S:

Despite Paul's recommendation, I take it your PC limitations preclude a charting 'software' solution, and that's why you're asking about paper charts.

One option is a chart 'book' of charts...

Jenny, I'd suggest you correspond with Cath & Ken on FELICITY, a Tahsiba 31 cutter that's now in your neighborhood but spent two off-seasons and the intervening summer in NZ. You can find their...

Sorry about this showing up as a new thread...

Perhaps I didn't make my point clearly. In cruising venues, being able to stand on one's own keel isn't about 'strength' but rather about the length (chord) and width of the keel relative to the...

Bob & Deb, we're missing a huge 'inbetween' category...

As usual, I like a lot of Jeff's content but, because he chooses to define 'fin vs. full' keel as the naval architect he is/has been, the discussion to my way of thinking blurs together with...

Sailing school is the last thing you need...

Greg, I don't mean to criticize sailing schools and I'm sure some formal instruction would be useful to you. But most of the challenges you face are w-a-y outside a typical school curriculum. Insofar...
