Which of my numbers would you argue with and what numbers would you give him? And have you been the route he's talking about? My numbers added to $181k so I said $150-200k. So reduce my numbers by 20% and you're still at $145k.

I'm also very familiar with what Nordhavn owners find themselves spending in the first year. The $200k loss on the boat may well be high but sales commission will be $100k and you must assume some depreciation so maybe $150k.

This isn't the great loop on a 36' trawler that he's talking about. Anyone else have numbers, feel free to offer them. I'm also assuming in buying a $1+ million boat that he can afford substantial costs and has planned for an expensive 14 month trip.
I was joking. I would have estimated $10,000/month without considering the depreciation and without going into the details you did. Anyway you cut the muster, those are some big bucks for a little more than 12 months but some of those expenses would be there just living in their land based home.
