I'd second what Bubb2 is trying to say. While you can get a off-shore capable boat for a limited budget, doing so requires a fair bit of luck and a good understanding of the requirements. An Albin Vega is one of the boats that could be had for such a limited budget, but it would require a fair bit of work to get ready for a bluewater passage.
Just remember, refitting a 30' boat costs about the same, whether the boat is five years old or thirty...

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
