I live inland and am considering purchasing a sailboat on the coast.
I know there is technology to help monitor and manage while not there, but would you not suggest this arrangement if I were to be a possible 5-6 hour drive away?
Things I have considered include-
Bilge operation, theft, rain leaks, damage at the dock, and storm preparation.
I have considered a trailerable sailboat, but they would not meet my desired use of extended travel and overnight sails.
Any and all input would be greatly appreciated.
