The Boat Virgin
You've been dreaming of getting a boat for ages, and now is the time for you to take the plunge.
- What skills and experience have you got?
- Where should you go to get training?
- How do I even buy a boat and what is the process & costs?
- What equipment do I need to get afloat safety?
- What kind of boat is right for you?
- Do you know how to use a VHF radio?
- What boat boat repairs and maintenance can you try yourself (even if you have zero technical skills)?
Well I have been on this journey since September 2020 and I learn something new pretty much every time I am on my boat, and I am not embarrassed or afraid to video it and share it with you. I've been featured in the May 2021 edition of MotorBoat & Yachting too, where I have shared some of my learnings.
Got questions or suggestions, I am all ears.
