Welcome to my RageBait episode 😂😂😂 In this long format educational video I explain why I choose to refit my tried and true Bluewater boat rather than buy a new set of unknown problems that come with buy used boats and why I would never buy new boat (unless I won the lottery and could have it built by KM Yachts) I cover subjects ranging from my mid circumnavigation refit to what to know about New boats vs. used boats , Small boats vs. Big boats and all the costs associated with different boat sizes when it comes to cruising the world. It takes a lot of time and effort for me to make these videos so if you found this video helpful and informative, please share it with your friends and on social media. Here are the PDFs I spoke about in the video. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RNNKrNPtfj6gFS5BYdQRh_nEosJfITdK?usp=share_link If you enjoy the channel please "Like" the videos and Subscribe so you don't miss any future episodes.
