I’ve never owned a boat in my life and now that I live near the sea I would love to own a small boat to travel along the coast from one city to another.

I have no experience with boats so that’s why I would love to hear some advice if you have any.

Would you recommend a used one or a new one?

And should I get a sailing boat or a motorboat and what type would you recommend? I don’t think I’ll have enough means to get a boat with a room inside, unless it’s relatively cheap.

And is learning how to navigate a sailing boat a long process?

    In a similar vein, a boat is a hole in the ocean that you throw money into

      I’ll introduce the concept of 'Boat Bucks ': Boats are expensive and spending $1000 is really just getting started so it eases the pain a bit to convert to Boat Bucks. 1BB = $100 and then you say “wow, gas is pretty cheap today! Only cost 3 Boat Bucks to fill up!”
