catalina 30 sailboats
best boat for 17 year old studant to live in - Sydney Harbour?
i want to know what boat would be best for me to live in while i go to university. I am looking to pay $15,000 to $25,000 and would like to get a boat that could sleep 2 people and has good facilities. I am also planning to live on boat until i finish uni and probably wont do to much traveling on it. How big should the boat be? Sail or Power? Catamaran or Single Hull? all advice and suggestions would be greatly appreciated
If a sailboat is what you are looking for to basicly just live aboard, get as big as one as you can for the money! Look for something from the early 70's to mid 80's. Look for a solid fiberglass hull, not a cored hull. A cored deck is something you can deal with, but not a cored hull. For the money you're talking about, a 30 to 36 foot boat is proba bly what your looking at, but a 40 would be better. You could easily find a catalina 30 for that money in the states, however it might be a bit small. Catalinas have many facilities including air, hot and cold water, and decent showers. I've sailed and slept in a hunter 34 - circa early 80's - which could be had for $20,000. This would probably do nicely. Hunters have many nice facilities too, and lots of volune due to large beam carried well aft, ie nice bed in the back. Some designers build more volume in their boats with a scrafice to sea keeping abilities and sailing performance in more extreme, offshore conditions. However these designs are great for nice weather, costal or day sailing. Catalina, and Hunter fall into this catagory. Don't get me wrong though - both of these companies have had many boats with ocean crossings. A center cockpit sailboat will have more livibility below, usually a large aft suite, but usually cost more. An O-day can be had for the money you are talking, as well as many other companies' boats. Shop around.
I sail a Bristol 22 which would be way too small to live on, but larger bristols would fit the bill, say a 32, 34, or 35.
