If you're planning to cruise full-time, you’ve probably spent hours scrolling boats, watching YouTube videos, and jumping between blogs and brokers… yet somehow feel less clear than when you started.
“Every boat looks amazing online — but I have no clue which one’s actually right for us.”
“The advice is everywhere — and none of it agrees.”
“I’m scared I’ll make a huge mistake and blow the dream.”
That’s because most buyers start backwards.They jump straight into listings without defining their mission — and end up overwhelmed, second-guessing every choice, or worse… stuck with the wrong boat.
This workshop fixes that.
You’ll learn how to get clear, filter smarter, and start your search with purpose — not panic.
Whether you’re:
Just beginning your search and feeling overwhelmed by boat types, advice, and internet noise
Already eyeballs-deep in listings — and still unsure what actually fits your cruising plans
A past or current boat owner who’s never had to plan for full-time, offshore life aboard
Trying to avoid wasting time and money chasing boats that look good but don’t truly fit
Define your cruising mission using our 6-question filter
Understand the major cruising boat categories — and which type actually fits your goals
Learn why boat fit matters more than price, layout, or length
Get real-world examples of performance, cruising, and expedition boats
Stop wasting time on listings that look good but go nowhere
Learn when and where to shop — and why timing matters
Build the foundation that smart buyers use before spending a dime
