>>981928Recreational sailing is easy as tits. $5,000 will get you a nice sailing dinghy or a piece of shit cabin cruiser.
Don't listen to retards that say "hurrrr boats are nothing but money pits." They're right, boats are money pits if you avoid doing the bare minimum of maintenance and have no clue what the fuck you're doing. The result is that it'll rot away underneath you when all of it could have been easily prevented by just storing it properly and fixing problems before they become disasters.
All that said, fuck off don't buy a boat, yachstmen are annoying and all of you get in our way
