Hi There! I was wondering other people's thoughts about renovating a sailboat and the possible costs....? My brother and I are looking to buy an older boat for under $20 000CAN and then renovating it. We then plan on sailing it down to the Caribbean and possibly down to Panama. Our goal is to set sail in July 2012, if not sooner. I am hoping to find a boat between 25-35' that floats (min. requirement LOL). We have never done anything like this and are both new to even renovating something (ages: 18 & 23). I would really be interested in other peoples ideas and does anyone know of good websites of places where I could search for our "dream boat", hopefully in eastern Canada or the Northeastern States. What are the things we need to look for when purchasing the boat, and time and costs associated with the renovation process??
Thanks!
