Now I know that intuitively most folks know what they need/want.

I happen to be one of those who just 'Do what I need to Do " ... alas my 'modus operandi' is apparently BADLY flawed.

I need checklists for a basic inventory ... what does your boat need ?

No Commercial Coding ... Normal Leisure use .

What are the 'Yes' and 'No' that we need for relaxed life on board?

PS ... Yes the 'Yes' does include Lumishore underwater lights before anyone asks ... ;)

Lets say '50 Feet' as a benchmark, weekend to two-week use.

'Yes'

Decent chardonnay, maybe a 'relaxed' red like 'Mouton Cadet' or maybe a nice Malt from Islay or Jura
Some mussels from the Strait or some Oysters from Ireland
Dutch cheese would be good and some Parma Ham

'No'

Mother in Law
None boaty relatives
Local 'Experts'
Hangers On
:D
