Just planning my retirement as you do!
12 years. Will be 58. Want to go sailing for a couple of years, then come back and work in a low stress job.
So a gleaming new RM1070 appeals for maybe baltic and Atlantic circuit.
But instead of spending £160k I could obviously buy a perfectly good used boat for say 80k and give the rest to my kids or use it for a huge extra £3200 a year income??!!
Obviously when it comes to it I probably won't be able to afford it anyway but I'd like to hear from those who have bought new, and those who could have but went used.
