I'm planning to retire in 5 years and thinking about cruising the Great Lakes for a few weeks every summer while I'm still youngish and healthy. I've owned a couple of small inboard cruisers (25 foot IO mercruisers) but nothing larger. I'm quite handy and I'm comfortable with most mechanical and electrical repairs and I've worked on diesel farm and construction equipment. But I have no experience with bigger boats. I'd like to find a 30-40 boat that needs some work to save money. Any good books or other resources to recommend? Does your experience tell you there isn't much savings to be had by my own labor? What should one spend on a 30-40 foot diesel trawler worthy of summering on the Great Lakes?
Appreciate your advice!
