The Real Cost of Living on a Sailboat
Everyone shows you the $1,500/month lifestyle. Nobody shows you what it costs to actually get there. In this video I break down every real number — purchase price, refit, haul-out, insurance, ongoing monthly costs — and what you actually need to have saved before any of this becomes real. 00:00 – Intro 00:30 – The boat purchase trap 01:04 – Haul-out, bottom paint & marina fees 02:13 – Insurance (and why most people skip it) 03:01 – Ongoing monthly costs at sea 05:11 – Adding it all up 06:30 – What this means for your plan #sailinglife #liveaboard #sailboat #boatbuying #captainseabound #sailingbudget #cruisinglife #bluewater #sailboatlife #beginner
