Long-term bareboat charter? Private owner?

Maybe a longshot, but I'm considering taking a sabbatical from work - maybe 4 to 6 weeks.

One idea would be to take the whole family "cruising" during this time. Maybe...

East Coast
Southern CA
San Juans
Door County / Lake Michigan
Florida

Anyway, we have 3 kids. I figure a 38 is the smallest boat we could go and maybe up towards a 45 on the high end.

So... in looking at charter companies, I'd be looking at $10,000 to $15,000 for a month's rental!

Can't do that. Too expensive.

Any ideas on other options? I thought maybe a private owner would consider a long-term rental in one of these locations.
