Hi Mark,
My wife (the Admiral) suggested that I add one more point. This is somewhat
closely based on our experience with moving to a larger boat.
- when you buy a new boat, be prepared for an experience quite similar to
buying a large piece of furniture at IKEA, bringing it home and trying to put
it together without instructions.
Forums and lists like this help enormously and you can count on help of other
sailors at the marina. But you won't be able (or will be too embarrassed) to
ask every question you need answered. eventually, you will know your boat quite
well (which is a bonus), but be prepared for a few frustrations and delays
before your first launch.
