The biggest myth keeping people from sailing? That it's only for the wealthy! Here's the truth: you can get on the water for just a few thousand dollars - that's it. Weekend sailing doesn't require a yacht or six figures. And if you want to live aboard full-time? You can find sailboats for the price of a car, sometimes even cheaper! It's not about having a mega yacht - there are plenty of affordable monohulls and catamarans out there. The real question is: how much work and maintenance are you willing to put in? Don't let money myths keep you from the sailing life you want! #sailing #sailboat #liveaboard #budget #affordable #ocean #yacht #boatlife #sailing101 #weekendsailing #myths #getstarted" This description breaks down the cost barriers while being encouraging and practical about what's actually needed to start sailing.
