Thanks for the feedback.

Our plan is to sell the house, and most belongings. Move onto thje boat and cruise. Plan on buying a displacement (or semi) trawler with low HP diesel(s). Also not sure about marinas, but probably anchor out part time and marina part time.

I have read many blogs, and they run the spectrum of expenses. (One family of 4 sails and attempts to live on less than $20k/yr.)

The blogs don't really say what their lifestyle was before they started cruising. They may state they spend $50k per year, but was this how they were living before they started cruising? Do they spend more, or did they find they spent less than on land?
