    yeah seems like the 3607 can be had from the mid teens up to the mid 30s'40's I've been trying to do more and more research on them and it seems like it was offered as a "budget" yacht that has had it fair share of problems from issue with the appliances to some of the motor mounting. Once we go...

    We've been watching them for about the past year or so, tons of great info and it seems to be a little more realistic type of life supposed to some of the other ones out there on youtube. They don't have a/c and idk how they get to sleep at night, i sweat my *** off so a/c is a must lol...

    I really don't know why I'm getting **** on for saying 3000 for two nights of a charter seemed expensive. Do you guys just throw your money around and not care what it goes to or if you can find a better deal else where. Makes no sense to me. Not to mention I was asking if it was normal. I'm not...

    I wont be able to run the a/c / heat of the panels but the idea was to not have to run the generator(as much). also we would not be keeping the stock fridge unless it was energy efficient. also found a few that basic fridges that we could convert and draw about 30-40 amps a day id post the link...

    thats one of the reasons we are looking at solar, I found one boat that comes with solar but it is a little older then id like but it does have a/c ( 3 units) a/c is a must for us and it seems like the best option is to find a boat that already has a/c rather then fitting a new unit to one...

    Maybe I should be a little more specific, we do not plan to spend the rest of our lives on this boat it is an adventure we would like to do before we "settle" down and start a family. I personally couldn't imagine having 2 or three kids on a boat for 24 hours a day it sounds like hell. For those...

    Thank you all for the wisdom and thoughts/suggestions. One of the main reason we are looking at a smaller cheaper boat is this is obsviously new to us. If we end up hating it after living aboard for 6 months it wont hurt the pocket book as much (hopefully) if we ended up buying a boat that is...

    agree 100%, thanks! Currently making a list of boats within a few hours and hopefully start looking at them and getting that hands on feel. With regards to internet, I am assuming we will need to be someone close to shore to use. Wouldn't expect to get great service 30 miles off. I've...

    whats the consensus of pop yachts? seem like there are cheaper boats on there but have read a decent amount of bad reviews. Anyone use them to actually purchase a boat? Thanks,

    Does anyone have any experience with a Whaly? https://www.boattrader.com/boat/2020-whaly-500-7394196/ Looks like it could be light and durable. Thanks

    alright lets start this all over, not trying to be rude/or immature and not trying to "impress" anyone 99% of what I said in the previous post would have never come out if I didn't feel like I was being pushed into a corner. If I did offended anyone I apologize and hope we can all move past this...

    I originally wanted a cat but after looking around I am not ready to drop over 100k into a boat on something that in a year i might realize I hate. Not to mention I am almost 6'4 and it seems a trawler would give me more room. Its been something I've been researching on and off for about 2 years...
