Not for nothing, but you could have headed-off the "you shouldn't be going"
response(s) by originally mentioning that you know the difference between
the pointy end and the other one. ;-)

I just knew someone would say that "I shouldn't be going" blah blah blah. I
know how to sail. I currently do not have a boat, but was hoping I would
get some answers so I would be able to start thinking about what boat would
do me the best (without making a mistake the first time) since I have been
on land raising my family for a couple of decades...
For the other folks that answered me- give me some time to read through
the sites you sent me- if you can spare the time- please email me and
maybe I can ask you some questions directly:

Thanks,
RB

What should I look for in a boat?

If you don't know what you need to look for, you shouldn't be going.

Autopilot if there is only the two of you


Autopilots can be installed or replaced. Wind vane steering would be
better as there's less to go wrong with it.
