Conundrum- Buy Now? or Buy Later?

Good evening! Lurker here trying to learn as much as possible.... Significant other is 9 months from retirement. Our Plan is to sell the house and go cruising for 5- X? years. We are still researching trawlers to do the Loop and other east coast cruising.... then maybe to the west coast. Lofty plans for folks who are landlocked and dream of the cursing live-aboard life style....

In these 9 months or so ahead.....

Question:

Do we find, buy the boat and store it till retirement? probably somewhere on the east coast.... OR

Do we wait till actual retirement then buy the boat?

I read there are LOTS of boats out there. I read that it may take us time to find the right one. OR we might find the right boat easily.

Thanks for all your input and guidance.
