If you are in the Med then £10k will cover your boat costs for, say a 12m comfortably if you don't have a permanent marina berth and anchor as much as you can (easier said than done in the Western Med). loving costs - basic food will be much the same as at home so will vary according to your lifestyle. Boat fixing as Vic says is a moveable feast depending on how good your boat is in the first place and how good you are at fixing things yourself. Discretionary expenditure can be a killer - trips home, inland sightseeing, eating and drinking out. There was a time when these things were cheap particularly in the eastern med, but ni longer. In short you will be frugal (and lucky!) if your annual expenditure for a couple is even close to double the amount you mention.
