Hello everyone! I am about 5 years from fully retiring and I want to slowly travel the waterways when I do. I found this forum and decided it looks like a good place to get smarter on everything Trawlers. I have never operated anything larger than a 17 ft Bayliner, so that is my level of expertise. My background is aviation maintenance so I don't have a problem getting my hands dirty. My plan is to spend the next 3-4 years getting smarter and shopping around for that perfect Trawler. Then spend the next 1-2 years slowly learning/fixing/operating everything about her before retiring and setting off for long term travel. I promise, I will try to minimize the noobie questions by scouring the archives first then researching via the internet.
