I am a young 71 ( retired 10 years )
Wife not so healthy 68 retired many years due too medical
Always owing a boat , cruisers, fishing . sail
I am a river rat . Cant be without a boat & water life.
Wife never liked my boats , no comfortable bathroom , A/C, comforts of home .
I am on this forum getting info on trawlers and this post got my interest
I don't want too give up my home, garage, tools , old truck , corvette and come too terms with that . Ocean is 75 miles each way. I sleep aboard returning home in a day or two
I own a 30 ft twin engine power cruiser . My water condo
Purchased cause wife fell in love with cabin . Stupid way too buy a boat but figured this type of yacht will get me back into a larger boat then SELL .
Home a few days I am climbing walls needing too get back too ocean
Have this desire too travel via water , but present boat burns too much fuel , limited on space , not designed for the long voyage
INTERESTING SIDE NOTE
I am in FLA, at gas dock , talking with a young man on his 40 ft sail boat
Possibly 35 years of age,
Just returning from a long voyage traveling back home too Carolinas
WOW how cool , doing that voyage . Wish I had the guts too do that
SAIL OR TRAWLER
Wife joins me to do something together but will never have the adventure or comfort level or love of the ocean as I do
I have spoken with many men that had the same desire as me , NOW DOING IT THEMSELVES .
WIFES say there going back too land .
RETIRMENT offers time too do things , does not mean you have too do it together
