Crusty, thanks for the time on the response. I am not planning major blue water, mostly an inside passage to Alaska, still that is a serious task and by no means taking it lightly. But having just read about a Fleming 53 crossing the Atlantic and hitting 75 knot winds for days off of Cartegena, I was more than impressed.....so coastal cruising is my goal. My liveaboard desire is more for retirement and costs...I figure the boat versus a condo/apt or house, I will take the boat.
Thanks again Salty. Why are you in the desert, no boats there that I know of?
