i think there are actually very few boat owners that doesnt have a project/upgrade list, either on paper or in their head.
but everyones list will be different, from vastly to slightly, because everyones boat is set up differently and everyone has a different idea of what they would like to add or
remove from their boat.
sometimes the different brands and options available on/in a component will dictate how much of a change the upgrade will be/could be done at the time of install.....
as the previous replys to your original post has shown, not everyone would do as you want to do, not that there is anything wrong with you doing what you want, but other people have different thoughts, for whatever reason..... experience (sometimes
lack of), personal preference and room available on the boat are the main reasons...
only you know how you actually use the boat, but always keep in mind that everything is a trade off, so the more systems/stuff you add to the boat, the more complicated and expensive the boat becomes to enjoy and maintain... and some systems are unreasonably expensive and very unnecessary for a coastal cruiser or marina hopper, such as a water maker, whereas a good mattress, tv/stereo, whisker pole, heater AND good boat ventilation are nearly essential things (in addition to many others) to have for comfortable year'round use.
the honda generator is not a necessary item.
think inverter... you and your boat would be much better served with a properly sized solar array, battery bank and inverter..... about the same cost, probably longer life, MUCH less maintenance and lower operating costs (never having to touch it, refill it, change the oil, worry about CO poisoning and noise) and its very up-gradable to more power when and if you ever need it. a thoughtful install should allow 20+years life expectancy from it.
the whisker pole is something that should not be considered as an upgrade but should be a part of the sailboat gear the same as a winch handle, halyard, compass, sails, ect.... it should already be in inventory.
and as far as your short list of upgrades go, you have not mentioned rebedding any hardware, upgrading/cleaning the winches, upgrading/adding anchors, changing any rodes, lines or rigging (other than adding a whisker pole), adding to or upgrading the interior/exterior upholstery/canvas work (cushions,dodger,bimini)....... maybe this stuff is all good already and needs nothing done to it, which is a good thing.
more properly, all this may fall under "boat maintenance" for some, but rebedding the deck hardware is more of an upgrade to me, than is adding a tv. and more important.
almost always, the tv/stereo/mattress and other comforts will add no actual cash value to the boat because as the boat ages, the other stuff ages at a MUCH MUCH faster rate (but it does add comfort).
proper and timely boat maintenance and working/sailing function upgrades almost always do add value... or at the very least, it keeps the boat from depreciating as quickly.
so, as you add upgrades and comforts, you can build for the long haul and try to maintain as much value in the boat as possible by balancing the the additions of the "creature comforts" along with the addition/upgrade of gear and maintenance
