Sailnet Members from around the world Please say Hi!
We are new to SailNet & are looking forward to interacting with you if we can just figure out how this site works.
We are from the Comox Valley on Vancouver Island, BC, Canada & have been planning for far too long to buy a sailboat that we can live on for 5 months a year. There are some questions I have in searching for this boat; the Nauticat 33 or 44.
Can you direct me to where I would post these questions? I thought there might be a register of owners with someone who would be selling soon. Thanks, Debs
Hello all! Glad to be aboard. Hailing from Indian Harbour Beach, FL. Sailing a 1982 22' Catalina. Looking forward to learning more in prep for live aboard by 2021.
Hello, just getting interested in sailing and looking for my first boat. I will be sailing Lake Ontario out of Kingston Ontario. Total newbie to sail power, long time power boater.
Just bought a 2006 MacGregor 26 M. Will be docking at Lagoon City on lake simcoe Ontario. Awaiting a barrage of comments saying that this is a sailboat forum, MacGregors need not apply. Lol.
Hi John,
Good to read your thinking of a boating culture change.
Unsolicited advice from an ancient mariner: Get some sailing lessons and rent a sailboat or two before you open your check book.
There's more to sailing than many people imagine. Not least is having a clear idea about what you want your sailboat for. It's often said that the best days around owning a sailboat are the ones before you buy one and the day after you sell it!
There's lots of advice out there on the web, and in magazines and books, and looking for a boat is a heap of fun. Don't rush if you want access to the amazing rewards sailing has to offer. Be prepared for your relationship with your surroundings to change a lot.
