Dave,

You are absolutely correct.. I do need to give more information, but I was hoping people would do exactly what you did and ask certain questions.

I am a pilot and live in Atlanta. What would happen is I would live on the boat on my days off and then park it somewhere???, while I go to work for four days or so...

I want the boat to serve as my primary residence and be capable to sail on the weekends. Possibly to the Keys, Bahamas, up the coast, etc.

I would like as much room as I can possibly afford. And that strictly depends on the financing.. I haven''t checked with banks concerning terms, and rates... Whether or no it will be treated like a toy or a home!!!

I am sure I will want fiberglass.. And all the ammenities of home.. Bath, nice bed(considering), kitchen,...?? Two bedrooms would really be better..

How big of a ship can a single person handle. I am sure it depends on how it is rigged!!!



In docking terms..??? What is a typical setup.. Do you have to keep a boat at the dock, can you get power, sewage, water,.... There are so many topics which just take time to cover..

Thanks for the reply... And keep the information comming.

Mike
