Things cost money. Traveling is definitely not any different. Therefore, a person will need money in order to hop from one destination to another. One ever growing method of traveling is sail boating. This method is casual, relaxing and a person can experience very beautiful scenery when they travel. However, it can cost quite a pretty penny!
For a beginner, a sail boat is obviously required. Purchasing a sail boat isn't necessarily as easy as buying something like a car. A lot of time and careful consideration is often advised because sail boats can cost more and, most likely, outlive a car. When going out to buy a boat, you should probably ask yourself if you're truly ready for it. Buying a boat that costs anywhere between $1,200 to almost $100,000 just to have to sitting in your garage isn't necessarily worth the money. Therefore, a person should most likely have plenty of free time to use their boat.
When going out to purchase a boat, it is highly recommended that a person bring a surveyor with them. A surveyor is highly advised for boats that cost more than $1,000. Surveyors usually cost about $300 but it is worth the extra money! Remember, they should know what they're looking at and their services will hopefully benefit your purchase. They look over the boat like an auto mechanic would check out a car. After the surveyor has cleared the boat as being qualified, a person should stop by their local Department of Motor Vehicles. The owner should have their current name and tag number and should ask for a title and registration report to ensure clear title.
Obviously, there are more steps than just these but I wanted to name off the basics. Extensive lessons, professional opinions and asking people about their previous sailing experiences are all also recommended.
