This is probably a stupid question.... So forgive me I know almost nothing
about boats.

What kind of boat would be needed if you wanted to go to the ocean. I
assume that with the waves you would need a larger boat.

Mostly it depends on what you want to do with the boat, cruise, fish,
overnights, etc. Then there is what you mean by go to the ocean. Are you
talking bays and close inshore, blue water. Optimum weather conditions,
moderate, or, able to handle anything but the most sever conditions.

The question of how and where the boat is going to be kept arises also.
Does it have to be trailer able, will you be mooring/docking it, marina
dry storage?

Then, of course, there is some combination of the above.


In other words there are any number of configurations and sizes of boats
that can be used on the ocean from fifty foot yachts down to an eight
foot row boat. It all depends on what your personal requirements are.
