I have been pondering all that my future boat will need and have decided to make a rough list.
I am sure this will grow and refine over time, yet I wanted to begin to keep track.
Please feel free to help add to the list if you have any advice. All advice is so much appreciated as I learn all that there is to life aboard.
After visiting the Freedom 38 this summer it has given me a wonderful starting point of all to consider.
There were elements of this boat that I completely loved and other areas that I realized were very important to find in the boat I am to eventually call home, such as this boat does not have a transom and to add one it would cost about half the price of this boat, so finding a boat that encompasses all I seek for the original sale would be ideal and will be my goal.
38 to 42ft
a transom
water maker
solar panels
wind turbine
auto pilot
gps system with tracker
two to three cabins
a head, with indoor shower
lifelines and jackets
galley off to the side, not in the saloon.
lots of storage space
teak deck
enclosed bimini cover for the cockpit
anchors including a hurricane anchor
all sails
dingy
paddle board
