For the past 3 weeks, we've almost shown you every nook and cranny of Vela, sharing how to live aboard and our plans to upgrade her for our circumnavigation. Today, we're switching gears and talking about the numbers. ? Owning and upgrading a boat isn't cheap, and spoiler alert: we haven't won the lottery or landed big sponsors. This dream is built on years of hard work, planning, and budgeting. ? From yearly expenses like insurance and harbor fees to big upgrades like navigation systems, electric setups, and new sails-being a boat owner comes with a price tag. ?? So, how much does it really cost to buy, maintain, and sail a boat around the world? We break it all down for you in today's episode! ? Can you guess our biggest expense so far? Watch the video to find out, and let us know if you think the cost of boat life is surprising or expected! ?
