The High Cost of Cruising

If you are downgrading from the trawler you describe, you can probably buy a higher quality and more expensive boat but money in the bank is freedom. Yup! A small boat and a bag of cash will beat one tied to the bank every time. I like the E32's characteristics so much that there are few 32 - 34 foot boats I would trade her for just to get higher quality and better reputation. Similar for us, except that exactly one 34' boat that we've boarded had improved livability, but it's quality sucked. Other than that, the boats that were a significant upgrade were at least 37', and significant money. We have preferred to accumulate the cash instead of being tied to the bankers. -- Jere Lull Xan-à-Deux -- Tanzer 28 #4 out of Tolchester, MD Xan's pages: http://web.mac.com/jerelull/iWeb/Xan/ Our BVI trips & tips: http://homepage.mac.com/jerelull/BVI/ |
