Ever thought about buying a really BIG boat? This book is for you. Ever wondered what life aboard a 100 foot sailboat is like? This book is for you. Interested in racing megayachts? Nah! You need to find more exciting reading.PK and Julia are a Pacific Northwest senior-set cruising couple who have been sailing a 94 foot, 100 ton ketch for well over a decade with some 30,000 miles under the keel, almost all of it without crew. This book is written to share their experience and explain the many ways a BIG boat differs from one of more moderate size. It's written for cruisers with enough self-confidence to harbor dreams of operating a super-sized yacht. You may find yourself thinking it's not such an outrageous dream after all.Their boat, Havfruen, is a sailing vessel but much of the big boat/small boat comparisons are applicable to motor vessels as well. Key topics include moorage and docking, maneuverability, maintenance, comfort and, yep, cost.There are darn few megayachts being operating without a crew, you will find their experience enlightening.
