Sailing Trips

i `m planing to sail in my country but I worls has long called on the sea What is the size needed to sail through this? Considering that several times I have to be on the sea for weeks

It usedto be that 30 was optimal. Today many go with a 40 BU should be able to manage yourself. Try volunteering as crew does get some experience.

go to groups McNaughton jay bemfords site. The cruise ship is a final you can manage by yourself.Americans believe that big is better, but I personally think that the boat should be whatever you please. TRY BEFORE YOU BUY

Generally, what I heard and read, is a 26-foot sailboat in good length. In what you can handle virtually any sea and space for necessities. My 11 feet Snark is fun for short trips!

greater than we can afford, the seas get pretty rough sometimes, the more safer when it comes to sailing off the coast

45 'minimum. Minimum 2-ton keel. Many other considerations.

We cruise at 45-foot sailboat full time. Most people we meet are on board yachts in the 40ft to 50ft range. tend to be loners in the 30ft to 40ft boats. We have not met anyone living long term on anything smaller than if 30ft.

Big is big in terms of lives, but they are much more difficult to manage ports and can be a real handful at sea if you are alone.

I sailed in the islands for two years, 40 is your best bet. a storage room for everything you need.
