After spending 3 years as full time liveaboards in the med, which was entirely possible pre Brexit and the implementation of 90/180, I have spent sometime away from the boat outside of the EU. My boat is Polish reg and is currently in Spain. I am now looking to return and scratching my head as to what to do, since my 3 months will likely be up in June...
I've looked at the following visa options:
Portugal D7 Visa -- how many brits have got this post transition period and managed to open the bank account from abroad?

- Morocco (is it bearable in summer, looks like it would be marina stay, perhaps Tangier for the entire 3 months.
- Tunisia again as a destination summer seems like this would be unpleasant.
- Montenegro - Montenegro - Advice and Recommendations
- Canals to UK - seems possible, cost of living in UK and is a concern any recommendations for place to park Southerly 115 around Cornwall or Devon - access to surf is a must?
- Leave boat in marina / on hard and travel 3 months - affordable summer marinas? Almerimar, Portimão, Any recommendations on the canals or Northern Spain ?
