GrampianCT is on a distinguished road
my boat:

Grampian 26.
cost $3500
Outboard $3000 (Honda 9.9 with power everything)
Setup cost $1000 (lifejackets, safety equipment, rewiring)
New Bacon Sail $750
Winter haul/wash/store/launch $1300
Outboard maintenance $100
Mooring for boat... priceless (thanks Grandma)

So, about $8000 to fully get 'into the boat'
about $2000 per year to use it...

This is a 1971 boat...its exactly what I wanted to learn on, but completely out of scale for what you are talking about... btw, my father got all upity.. he bought himself a new fangled O'Day sailboat..1973..just showing off his big bucks on a new boat
