My name is Ron
After a 30 year spread from sailing and living in Las Vegas Nevada I am now retiring and want to live aboard a comfortable sea going vessel. After looking at a lot of fix up Columbias, Cal 246
My spouse just happened to tour a Beneteau 510 and said this is the boat she will be comfortable in. My question is she reliable on the open seas ? This vessel has been cared for and the owner custom ordered many features.
The prep I feel I need to cross an ocean is a water maker. Wind Vane steering as rudder back up, a Duo Gen wind hydro generator to keep batteries up without firing diesel generator, sea anchor, a light dingy,
I want to sail some shake down cruises before I depart with a crew of 4 .
My final destination is Singapore, I have not chosen a route yet, I will get much advice first about when and where to sail.
An advise about the boat or my plans will be very welcome. Also is there a sight where I can post a meet up to see if others would make crossing together, when ever ? The boat will be surveyed in two weeks and thing I should give special attemtion to ?
